Thank you, Petko!


BTW: I found a lot uses of {get,set}_registers without error checking. I
think, some of them could be fixed easily (like in enable_eprom_write), but, I
guess, disable_eprom_write is not so easy. For example, if we cannot disable
eprom should we retry? If not, will device get in some unexpected state?

Im not familiar with this device, but I can prepare a patch to wrap all these
calls with proper error checking

Here goes a preliminary patch that should apply on top of your, maybe with just
a few warnings. This is a review only diff, not the real patch. It's against
5.14-rc4.

I am mildly curious why syzbot didn't catch the same type of bug in
enable_net_traffic() and setup_pegasus_II() for example.

Looks good to me.

Build test didn't generate any warnings (tested on top of v5.14-rc4 with yours and mine patches applied). Smatch didn't generate any warnings as well.

I found two more places, where read_mii_word() is used without error checking: pegasus_ioctl() and mii_phy_probe(). If I understand correctly, mii_phy_probe() is more dangerous one, since it's used in ->probe().
