The warning comes from:
drivers/net/phy/phy.c:phy_stop()
so from the networking phylib.

Doing a simple:
$ git grep -p phy_stop

shows that practially all Ethernet drivers call phy_stop() from the
.ndo_stop() callback.

So after your suggested patch, you should see this warning appear with
any NIC, if connected to your PCIe controller.

You might not care, which is fine, I simply wanted to inform you about it,
since it is not only realtek, it is any NIC.


Kind regards,
Niklas
