From 125d128bec1bbf81be4c198243334a6153c0b023 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kumar Gala Date: Wed, 9 Nov 2005 12:13:11 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] gianfar mii needs to zero out the mii_bus structure To ensure that phy_mask and any future elements of the mii_bus structure are initialized use kzalloc() instead of kmalloc(). This fixes an issue in which phy_mask was not being initialized and we would skip random phy addresses when scanning.
