There appears to be another possible flaw in the code here:
for_each_child_of_node(np, plat->mdio_node) {
if (of_device_is_compatible(plat->mdio_node,
"snps,dwmac-mdio"))
break;
}
the loop should use for_each_available_child_of_node() such that if a
platform has a Device Tree definition where the MDIO bus node was
provided but it was not disabled by default (a mistake, it should be
disabled by default), and a "fixed-link" property ended up being used at
the board level, we should not end-up with an invalid plat->mdio_node
reference. Then the code could possibly eliminate the use of 'mdio' as a
boolean and rely exclusively on plat->mdio_node. What do you think?
And an alternative to your fix would be to scan even further the MDIO
bus node for available child nodes, if there are none, do not perform
the MDIO initialization at all since we have no MDIO devices beneath.

That sounds reasonable, but we should also not break existing platforms
with existing Device Trees out there, as much as possible.
