From: Claudiu Manoil <claudiu.manoil@xxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 26cb7085c8984e5b71d65c374a135134ed8cabb3 ] For ENETC ports that register an external MDIO bus, the bus doesn't get removed on the error bailout path of enetc_pf_probe(). This issue became much more visible after recent: commit 07095c025ac2 ("net: enetc: Use DT protocol information to set up the ports") Before this commit, one could make probing fail on the error path only by having register_netdev() fail, which is unlikely. But after this commit, because it moved the enetc_of_phy_get() call up in the probing sequence, now we can trigger an mdiobus_free() bug just by forcing enetc_alloc_msix() to return error, i.e. with the 'pci=nomsi' kernel bootarg (since ENETC relies on MSI support to work), as the calltrace below shows: kernel BUG at /home/eiz/work/enetc/net/drivers/net/phy/mdio_bus.c:648!
