I can reproduce this, but I'm not really sure how to deal with it and
it's unrelated to Renesas AVB Ethernet driver.
What happens when when running without CONFIG_MARVELL_88Q2XXX_PHY=y is
that the core fallback to use the generic Generic Clause 45 PHY driver.
And the generic driver don't work correctly for the PHY on V4H (88Q2110).
The splat happens when the generic driver tries to enable auto
negotiation. This is known to be broken for 88Q2110 and the
CONFIG_MARVELL_88Q2XXX_PHY=y driver disables this. From
marvell-88q2xxx.c
/* The PHY signalizes it supports autonegotiation. Unfortunately, so
* far it was not possible to get a link even when following the init
* sequence provided by Marvell. Disable it for now until a proper
* workaround is found or a new PHY revision is released.
*/
if (phydev->drv->phy_id == MARVELL_PHY_ID_88Q2110)
linkmode_clear_bit(ETHTOOL_LINK_MODE_Autoneg_BIT,
phydev->supported);
If I hack the generic PHY to also not try auto negotiation the splat go
away and the PHY binds using the generic driver. I did not test using it
further.
I can't try to submit such a hack as that would break all other PHY
where auto negotiation works. So I'm not sure we can do anything about
this other than make sure we have the correct PHY drivers around, or use
PHYs that works with the Clause 45 specification.
