This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled net: axienet: setup mdio unconditionally to the 5.17-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-setup-mdio-unconditionally.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.17 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 3fce4f381cc00cddafc1bc8521d98911c4810874 Author: Andy Chiu <andy.chiu@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Apr 5 17:19:26 2022 +0800 net: axienet: setup mdio unconditionally [ Upstream commit d1c4f93e3f0a023024a6f022a61528c06cf1daa9 ] The call to axienet_mdio_setup should not depend on whether "phy-node" pressents on the DT. Besides, since `lp->phy_node` is used if PHY is in SGMII or 100Base-X modes, move it into the if statement. And the next patch will remove `lp->phy_node` from driver's private structure and do an of_node_put on it right away after use since it is not used elsewhere.
