What i think is better is to make fixed_phy_add() return -EPROBE_DEFER if it is called before fixed_mdio_bus_init().
I don't see how this will work for platforms such as ar7 and bcm47xx which call fixed_phy_add() from platform code. There is no probe to retry there so while the EPROBE_DEFER will certainly fix the crash it will also leave the platforms without a phy. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-m68k" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
