Hi Voon
I _think_ there are some order of operation issues here. The mdiobus
is registered in the probe function. As soon as of_mdiobus_register()
is called, the MDIO bus must work. At that point MDIO read/writes can
start to happen.
As far as i can see, the interrupt handler is only requested in
stmmac_open(). So it seems like any MDIO operations after probe, but
before open are going to fail?
Thanks
