From: Patrice Chotard <patrice.chotard@xxxxxx> Since 'd3e014ec7d5e ("net: stmmac: platform: Fix MDIO init for platforms without PHY")' we got the following kernel Oops : Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000260 pgd = (ptrval) [00000260] *pgd=79a79831 Internal error: Oops: 17 [#1] SMP ARM Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 201 Comm: ip Not tainted 5.5.0-rc5 #13 Hardware name: STi SoC with Flattened Device Tree PC is at mdiobus_get_phy+0x4/0x20 LR is at stmmac_open+0x278/0xaa8 pc : [<c0a7e41c>] lr : [<c0b1755c>] psr: a0070013 sp : ed663930 ip : 00000000 fp : c110079c r10: ed663d4c r9 : ed663d4c r8 : ee774028 r7 : ee22ad00 r6 : ee776000 r5 : 00000000 r4 : ee774000 r3 : ee775000 r2 : ca451a07 r1 : 00000098 r0 : 00000000 Flags: NzCv IRQs on FIQs on Mode SVC_32 ISA ARM Segment none Control: 10c5387d Table: 6d75404a DAC: 00000051 Process ip (pid: 201, stack limit = 0x(ptrval)) This is due to lack of mdio DT subnode, so add it.
