[PATCH -next] smsc911x: Fix crash seen if neither ACPI nor OF is configured or used

Show all headers | View raw

Commit 0b50dc4fc971 ("Convert smsc911x to use ACPI as well as DT") makes
the call to smsc911x_probe_config() unconditional, and no longer fails if
there is no device node. device_get_phy_mode() is called unconditionally,
and if there is no phy node configured returns an error code. This error
code is assigned to phy_interface, and interpreted elsewhere in the code
as valid phy mode. This in turn causes qemu to crash when running a
variant of realview_pb_defconfig.

	qemu: hardware error: lan9118_read: Bad reg 0x86
