Subject: net: ethernet: mtk_eth_soc: avoid writing to ESW registers on MT7628
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9a04d3b2f0708a9e5e1f731bafb69b040bb934a0;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Flinux.git

net: ethernet: mtk_eth_soc: avoid writing to ESW registers on MT7628

The MT7628 has a fixed-link PHY and does not expose MAC control
registers. Writes to these registers only corrupt the ESW VLAN
configuration.

This patch explicitly registers no-op phylink_mac_ops for MT7628, as
after removing the invalid register accesses, the existing
phylink_mac_ops effectively become no-ops.

This code was introduced by commit 296c9120752b
("net: ethernet: mediatek: Add MT7628/88 SoC support")
