Subject: [PATCH] Replace genphy_update_link() call with phy_read_status()
Date: Wed, 12 Sep 2012 13:23:37 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <505070B9.90402@sysgo.com> (raw)

From: Alexander Sverdlin <alexander.sverdlin@sysgo•com>

Replace genphy_update_link() call with phy_read_status() 

Code in phy.c should not call genphy_*() functions directly, this breaks PHY layer abstraction.
Some drivers may re-implement "read_status" callback and it's not being called in one place of
PHY state machine, where genphy_update_link() is called instead. So fix it.
For drivers that rely on genphy_* implementation nothing changed, as genphy_read_status() calls
genphy_update_link() anyway.
