[PATCH 2/2] drivers/net/phy/mdio-bitbang.c: Call mdiobus_unregister before mdiobus_free

[Peter Senna Tschudin]

Based on commit b27393aecf66199f5ddad37c302d3e0cfadbe6c0

Calling mdiobus_free without calling mdiobus_unregister causes
BUG_ON(). This patch fixes the issue.

The semantic patch that found this issue(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/):
// <smpl>
@@
expression E;
@@
  ... when != mdiobus_unregister(E);

+ mdiobus_unregister(E);
  mdiobus_free(E);
// </smpl>

This problem is somewhat mystifying. If the patch is correct, there were
probably many OOPSese caused by not calling mdiobus_unregister...
Reporting anyway...
