[PATCH net-next 04/16] net: pcs: xpcs: Explicitly return error on caps validation

From: Serge Semin
Date: Tue Dec 05 2023 - 05:36:26 EST


If an unsupported interface is requested to be validated then there is no
need in further capabilities and-ing since the local array will be left
initialized with zeros. Let's explicitly return EINVAL error in that case
in order to inform the caller about invalid link-state interface. In any
case the phylink_validate_mac_and_pcs() would terminate with error further
link-state validation so the suggested update won't change the validation
procedure semantics.
