Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 net] Add genphy_c45_config_aneg() function to
 phy-c45.c

> Commit 34786005eca3 ("net: phy: prevent PHYs w/o Clause 22 regs from calling
> genphy_config_aneg") introduced a check that aborts phy_config_aneg()
> if the phy is a C45 phy.
> This causes phy_state_machine() to call phy_error() so that the phy
> ends up in PHY_HALTED state.
> 
> Instead of returning -EOPNOTSUPP, call genphy_c45_config_aneg()
> (analogous to the C22 case) so that the state machine can run
