From: Michael Chan <mchan@xxxxxxxxxxxx> commit ba41d46fe03223279054e58d570069fdc62fb768 upstream. If we fail to update the PHY, we should print a warning and continue. The current code to exit is buggy as it has not freed up the NIC resources yet. Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <michael.chan@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
