From a48ed75d6ca590746d24b14ade0778aa2eae70c7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Bauer Date: Sun, 22 Sep 2019 19:15:56 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ipq40xx: abort ar40xx probe on missing PHYs The ar40xx driver currently panics in case no QCA807x PHY has been successfully probed. This happens when the external PHY is still in reset when probing the ar40xx switch driver. Note that this patch does not fix the root cause, ar40xx_probe now simply fails instead of causing a kernel panic due to a nullpointer dereference.
