[RFC] net: phy: smsc: Disable auto-negotiation on startup

Show all headers | View raw

Because the SMSC PHY completes auto-negotiation before the driver is
ready to handle interrupts, the PHY state machine never realizes that we
have a link. Clear the ANENABLE bit on initialization, which lets
genphy_config_aneg do its thing when that code is hit later.

While this patch does fix the problem we see (no link on boot without
re-plugging the cable), it seems like the generic PHY code should be
able to handle auto-negotiation completing before interrupts are
enabled. Submitted as an RFC in the hopes that someone has an idea as to
how that could be done.

This fix is copied from commit 99f81afc139c ("phy: micrel: Disable auto
negotiation on startup").
