In case we need to divert reads/writes using the slave MII bus, we may have already fetched a valid PHY interface property from Device Tree, and that mode is used by the PHY driver to make configuration decisions.
If we could not fetch the "phy-mode" property, we will assign p->phy_interface to PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_NA, such that we can actually check for that condition as to whether or not we should override the interface value. Fixes: 19334920eaf7 ("net: dsa: Set valid phy interface type") Signed-off-by: Florian Fainelli <f.faine...@gmail.com> --- Hi Guenter, Could you verify this does not break what you were trying to fix with your change? I am fairly confident this will not because for "PHYs" built-into the switch port we will not be able to fetch a "phy-mode" property from DT, so we will use PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_NA, but here, we will re-assign them to PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_GMII as before.
