Looks good to me on first glance, testing will confirm further :-) Probably, to kill the long delays with locks held, we just need to add a PHY config semaphore. Interrupts that want to try and program the PHY just do a down_trylock() on that semaphore and defer their work if it cannot be acquired. |
