Subject: [PATCH net-next 00/10] ds->user_mii_bus cleanup (part 1)

There are some drivers which assign ds->user_mii_bus when they
don't really need its specific functionality, aka non-OF based
dsa_user_phy_connect(). There was some confusion regarding the
fact that yes, this is why ds->user_mii_bus really exists, so
I've started a cleanup series which aims to eliminate the usage
of ds->user_mii_bus from drivers when there is nothing to gain
from it.

Today's drivers are lantiq_gswip, qca8k and bcm_sf2. The work is
not done here, but a "part 2" may or may not come, depending on
other priorities.

All patches were only compile-tested.

Vladimir Oltean (10):
  net: dsa: lantiq_gswip: delete irrelevant use of ds->phys_mii_mask
  net: dsa: lantiq_gswip: use devres for internal MDIO bus, not
    ds->user_mii_bus
  net: dsa: lantiq_gswip: ignore MDIO buses disabled in OF
  net: dsa: qca8k: put MDIO bus OF node on qca8k_mdio_register() failure
  net: dsa: qca8k: skip MDIO bus creation if its OF node has status =
    "disabled"
  net: dsa: qca8k: assign ds->user_mii_bus only for the non-OF case
  net: dsa: qca8k: consolidate calls to a single
    devm_of_mdiobus_register()
  net: dsa: qca8k: use "dev" consistently within qca8k_mdio_register()
  net: dsa: bcm_sf2: stop assigning an OF node to the ds->user_mii_bus
  net: dsa: bcm_sf2: drop priv->master_mii_dn
