[PATCH] net: phy: realtek: add support for RTL8366S Gigabit PHY

From: Mark Mentovai
Date: Thu Jul 25 2024 - 13:05:33 EST


The PHY built in to the Realtek RTL8366S switch controller was
previously supported by genphy_driver. This PHY does not implement MMD
operations. Since 9b01c885be36 (2023-02-13, in 6.3), MMD register reads
have been made during phy_probe to determine EEE support. For
genphy_driver, these reads are transformed into 802.3 annex 22D clause
45-over-clause 22 mmd_phy_indirect operations that perform MII register
writes to MII_MMD_CTRL and MII_MMD_DATA. This overwrites those two MII
registers, which on this PHY are reserved and have another function,
rendering the PHY unusable while so configured.

Proper support for this PHY is restored by providing a phy_driver that
declares MMD operations as unsupported by using the helper functions
provided for that purpose, while remaining otherwise identical to
genphy_driver.
