From 8e99fc5f887a072ee023eb9a3240eba85e768734 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Giuseppe Cavallaro Date: Mon, 29 Feb 2016 14:27:39 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] stmmac: do not poll phy handler when attach a switch This patch avoids to call the stmmac_adjust_link when the driver is connected to a switch by using the FIXED_PHY support. Prior this patch the phydev->irq was set as PHY_POLL so periodically the phy handler was invoked spending useless time because the link cannot actually change. Note that the stmmac_adjust_link will be called just one time and this guarantees that the ST glue logic will be setup according to the mode and speed fixed.
