If an Ethernet PHY is initialized before the interrupt controller it is
connected to, a message like the following is printed:
irq: no irq domain found for /interrupt-controller@e61c0000 !
However, the actual error is ignored, leading to a non-functional (POLL)
PHY interrupt later:
Micrel KSZ8041RNLI ee700000.ethernet-ffffffff:01: attached PHY driver [Micrel KSZ8041RNLI] (mii_bus:phy_addr=ee700000.ethernet-ffffffff:01, irq=POLL)
Depending on whether the PHY driver will fall back to polling, Ethernet
may or may not work.
To fix this:
1. Switch of_mdiobus_register_phy() from irq_of_parse_and_map() to
of_irq_get().
Unlike the former, the latter returns -EPROBE_DEFER if the
interrupt controller is not yet available, so this condition can be
detected.
Other errors are handled the same as before, i.e. use the passed
mdio->irq[addr] as interrupt.
2. Propagate and handle errors from of_mdiobus_register_phy() and
of_mdiobus_register_device().

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
