Device-managed resources are released after manually-managed resources. Therefore, once any manually-managed resource is acquired, all further resources must be manually-managed too.only for resources which have dependencies. Please include in the commit message what exactly is going wrong in this driver. The commit under Fixes seems to be running ioremap, I don't see how that matters vs netdev allocation for example..
In the series I originally submitted this in, I wanted to add a devm resources (mdio bus etc.) at the end of probe that required the clocks to be running. But as a standalone patch this is more of a cleanup.

Convert all resources before the MDIO bus is created into device-managed resources. In all cases but one there are already devm variants available.
