This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled net: axienet: Handle deferred probe on clock properly to the 5.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: net-axienet-handle-deferred-probe-on-clock-properly.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit a417e77651b716dcd7c4f17b453ca2374fe103bf Author: Robert Hancock <robert.hancock@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Feb 12 18:17:48 2021 -0600 net: axienet: Handle deferred probe on clock properly [ Upstream commit 57baf8cc70ea4cf5503c9d42f31f6a86d7f5ff1a ] This driver is set up to use a clock mapping in the device tree if it is present, but still work without one for backward compatibility. However, if getting the clock returns -EPROBE_DEFER, then we need to abort and return that error from our driver initialization so that the probe can be retried later after the clock is set up. Move clock initialization to earlier in the process so we do not waste as much effort if the clock is not yet available. Switch to use devm_clk_get_optional and abort initialization on any error reported. Also enable the clock regardless of whether the controller is using an MDIO bus, as the clock is required in any case.
