Hi! While fuzzing the kernel with syzkaller I've been getting kernel hangs within the asix driver. On commit 6cff0a118f23b98c604a3604ea9de11338e24fbe (4.14-rc6+). As far as I can tell the issue is that asix_phy_reset() doesn't enforce proper timeout. asix_phy_reset() calls asix_mdio_read() in a loop 5000 times with 100 us delay, which gives 500 ms of sleeping time, but it doesn't account for the time while asix_mdio_read() executes. asix_mdio_read() in turns contains another loop for 30 iterations with a sleep for 1 ms (and does a bunch of stuff besides that). As a result asix_mdio_read() takes ~80 ms in my setup. This results in at least 5000 * 80 ms = 400 seconds of delay in addition to those insignificant 500 ms.
