4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert+renesas@xxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 5f5c5449acad0cd3322e53e1ac68c044483b0aa5 ]
The MDIO initialization failure message is printed using the network
device, before it has been registered, leading to:
(null): failed to initialise MDIO
Use the platform device instead to fix this:
sh-eth ee700000.ethernet: failed to initialise MDIO
Fixes: daacf03f0bbfefee ("sh_eth: Register MDIO bus before registering the network device")
