[PATCH net 2/2] net: stmmac: fix system hang if change mac address after interface ifdown

From: Joakim Zhang
Date: Thu May 20 2021 - 08:53:57 EST


Fix system hang with below sequences:
~# ifconfig ethx down
~# ifconfig ethx hw ether xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx

After ethx down, stmmac all clocks gated off and then register access causes
system hang.

Fixes: 5ec55823438e ("net: stmmac: add clocks management for gmac driver")
