Hi Sean Why is it an error not to have any children on the bus? Say i have a fibre optical module connected to the MAC. It is unlikely to have an MII interface, so i would not list it on the bus. With this change, if i have the mdio-bus node in my device tree, i don't get a working system. Without this change, it simply does not instantiate the MDIO device, and returns without an error. I think this patch should be dropped, or maybe a comment adding, why the current code returns 0 at this point.
