[ Upstream commit a58d882841a0750da3c482cd3d82432b1c7edb77 ]
The mv88e6xxx has an internal PPU that polls PHY state. If we want to access the internal PHYs, we need to disable the PPU first. Because that is a slow operation, a 10ms timer is used to re-enable it, canceled with every access, so bulk operations effectively only disable it once and re-enable it some 10ms after the last access.
If a PHY is accessed and then the mv88e6xxx module is removed before the 10ms are up, the PPU re-enable ends up accessing a dangling pointer.
This especially affects probing during bootup. The MDIO bus and PHY registration may succeed, but registration with the DSA framework may fail later on (e.g. because the CPU port depends on another, very slow device that isn't done probing yet, returning -EPROBE_DEFER). In this case, probe() fails, but the MDIO subsystem may already have accessed the MIDO bus or PHYs, arming the timer.
This is fixed as follows: - If probe fails after mv88e6xxx_phy_init(), make sure we also call mv88e6xxx_phy_destroy() before returning - In mv88e6xxx_remove(), make sure we do the teardown in the correct order, calling mv88e6xxx_phy_destroy() after unregistering the switch device. - In mv88e6xxx_phy_destroy(), destroy both the timer and the work item that the timer might schedule, synchronously waiting in case one of the callbacks already fired and destroying the timer first, before waiting for the work item. - Access to the PPU is guarded by a mutex, the worker acquires it with a mutex_trylock(), not proceeding with the expensive shutdown if that fails. We grab the mutex in mv88e6xxx_phy_destroy() to make sure the slow PPU shutdown is already done or won't even enter, when we wait for the work item.
