In ucc_geth's .mac_config(), we configure the TBI block represented by a struct phy_device that we get from firmware. While porting to phylink, a check was missed to make sure we don't try to access the TBI PHY if we can't get it.

Heh that's what I get from sending patches while having mild fever, the patch title is all wrong and should be : net: freescale: ucc_geth: Return early when TBI PHY can't be found I'll wait for the 24h cooldown, grab some honey + milk and resend after :) Maxime
