This is an AI-generated review of your patch. The human sending this email has considered the AI review valid, or at least pausible. For local reproduction steps see https://netdev-ai.bots.linux.dev/ai-local.html --- net: stmmac: qcom-ethqos: add support for sa8255p This commit adds support for the SA8255P SoC which uses power domains managed via SCMI firmware, rather than the traditional clock/phy-based power management used by other variants.

+ qcom_ethqos_domain_on(ethqos, ETHQOS_PD_SERDES);^^ Should this be qcom_ethqos_domain_off() instead of qcom_ethqos_domain_on()? This function is registered as a cleanup action via devm_add_action_or_reset() to undo the qcom_ethqos_domain_on(ETHQOS_PD_SERDES) call during probe. Using domain_on here would increment the PM runtime usage counter again rather than decrementing it. The serdes power domain would never be properly turned off on driver removal. Compare with qcom_ethqos_pd_serdes_powerdown() which correctly uses qcom_ethqos_domain_off().

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Is qcom_ethqos_pd_init() being called twice? It is assigned to plat_dat->init above, and then called directly here. Later, devm_stmmac_pltfr_probe() -> stmmac_pltfr_probe() -> stmmac_dvr_probe() will call plat_dat->init() again (see stmmac_main.c stmmac_dvr_probe function). Each call to qcom_ethqos_pd_init() increments the PM runtime usage counter for ETHQOS_PD_CORE and ETHQOS_PD_MDIO via pm_runtime_resume_and_get(). With two calls, the refcount would be 2 for each domain, but qcom_ethqos_pd_exit() only decrements once per domain. This would leave the power domains with a dangling reference. Perhaps the direct call to qcom_ethqos_pd_init() here should be removed, and let stmmac_dvr_probe() invoke it through the plat_dat->init callback?
