This is done. The problematic thing is that in stmmac_open() ->
__stmmac_open() the syncp initialized before is overwritten by

memcpy(&priv->dma_conf, dma_conf, sizeof(*dma_conf));

Do I need to point out that this is ugly?

Together with Johannes Berg I debugged that in #netdev and we came up
with:

diff --git a/drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/stmmac_main.c b/drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/stmmac_main.c

+
return ret;
}

which works around the problem. Note however that the u64_stats_init()
calls must not be deleted from stmmac_dvr_probe() because it's used
there once before __stmmac_open() overwrites it.

Best regards
Uwe
