net: mdio: MDIO_PIC64HPSC should depend on ARCH_MICROCHIP

2026-04-17T02:04:58+00:00

The PIC64-HPSC/HX MDIO interface is only present on Microchip PIC64-HPSC/HX SoCs. Hence add a dependency on ARCH_MICROCHIP, to prevent asking the user about this driver when configuring a kernel without Microchip SoC support.

net: mdio: add a driver for PIC64-HPSC/HX MDIO controller

2026-04-12T21:19:19+00:00

This adds an MDIO driver for PIC64-HPSC/HX. The hardware supports C22 and C45 but only C22 is implemented in this commit. This MDIO hardware is based on a Microsemi design supported in Linux by mdio-mscc-miim.c. However, The register interface is completely different with pic64hpsc, hence the need for a separate driver. The documentation recommends an input clock of 156.25MHz and a prescaler of 39, which yields an MDIO clock of 1.95MHz. The hardware supports an interrupt pin or a "TRIGGER" bit that can be polled to signal transaction completion. This commit uses polling. This was tested on Microchip HB1301 evalkit with a VSC8574 and a VSC8541.

net: mdio: mvusb: drop redundant device reference

2026-03-11T02:53:19+00:00

Driver core holds a reference to the USB interface and its parent USB device while the interface is bound to a driver and there is no need to take additional references unless the structures are needed after disconnect. Drop the redundant device reference to reduce cargo culting, make it easier to spot drivers where an extra reference is needed, and reduce the risk of memory leaks when drivers fail to release it.
