[PATCH net-next 3/4] net: netcp: Do not clobber PHY link outside of state machine

Show all headers | View raw

Calling phy_read_status() means that we may call into
genphy_read_status() which in turn will use genphy_update_link() which
can make changes to phydev->link outside of the state machine's state
transitions. This is an invalid behavior that is now caught as off
811a919135b9 ("phy state machine: failsafe leave invalid RUNNING state")
