Not all pasemi mac interfaces can have a phy attached. For example, XAUI has no phy and phydev is NULL for it. In this case ethtool get settings causes kernel crash. Fix it by returning -EOPNOTSUPP if there's no PHY attached. Signed-off-by: Valentine Barshak <vbarshak@ru.mvista.com> --- drivers/net/pasemi_mac_ethtool.c | 3 +++ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+)
