From 20d8bb0d172d87dcc52727cb7174ae9994de8978 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hauke Mehrtens Date: Mon, 2 Mar 2020 00:55:02 +0100 Subject: phylink: Improve error message when validate failed This should improve the error message when the PHY validate in the MAC driver failed. I ran into this problem multiple times that I put wrong interface values into the device tree and was searching why it is failing with -22 (-EINVAL). This should make it easier to spot the problem.
