[PATCH 4.2 131/134] stmmac: fix check for phydev being open

Show all headers | View raw

4.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Alexey Brodkin <Alexey.Brodkin@synopsys.com>

commit dfc50fcaad574e5c8c85cbc83eca1426b2413fa4 upstream.

Current check of phydev with IS_ERR(phydev) may make not much sense
because of_phy_connect() returns NULL on failure instead of error value.

Still for checking result of phy_connect() IS_ERR() makes perfect sense.

So let's use combined check IS_ERR_OR_NULL() that covers both cases.
