Subject: Re: [PATCH] net: ethernet: fec: Replace interrupt driven MDIO with
 polled IO

Hello,

This patch breaks network boot on at least imx8mm-evk. Boot works if I 
revert just commit 29ae6bd1b0d8 ("net: ethernet: fec: Replace interrupt 
driven MDIO with polled IO") on top of next-20200424.

Running with tp_printk trace_event=mdio:* shows the phy identifier is 
not read correctly:

BAD:
[    9.058457] mdio_access: 30be0000.ethernet-1 read  phy:0x00 reg:0x02 
val:0x0000
[    9.065857] mdio_access: 30be0000.ethernet-1 read  phy:0x00 reg:0x03 
val:0x0000

GOOD:
[    9.100485] mdio_access: 30be0000.ethernet-1 read  phy:0x00 reg:0x02 
val:0x004d
[    9.108271] mdio_access: 30be0000.ethernet-1 read  phy:0x00 reg:0x03 
val:0xd074

I don't have the original patch in my inbox, hope the manual In-Reply-To 
header is OK.
