====================
sh_eth: Fix reboot crash
This patch fixes a regression v5.11-rc1, where rebooting while a sh_eth
device is not opened will cause a crash.
Changes compared to v1:
- Export mdiobb_{read,write}(),
- Call mdiobb_{read,write}() now they are exported,
- Use mii_bus.parent to avoid bb_info.dev copy,
- Drop RFC state.
Alternatively, mdio-bitbang could provide Runtime PM-aware wrappers
itself, and use them either manually (through a new parameter to
alloc_mdio_bitbang(), or a new alloc_mdio_bitbang_*() function), or
automatically (e.g. if pm_runtime_enabled() returns true). Note that
the latter requires a "struct device *" parameter to operate on.
Currently there are only two drivers that call alloc_mdio_bitbang() and
use Runtime PM: the Renesas sh_eth and ravb drivers. This series fixes
the former, while the latter is not affected (it keeps the device
powered all the time between driver probe and driver unbind, and
changing that seems to be non-trivial).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
