[PATCH] [RESEND, net-next] net: ethernet: ti-cpsw:: rename soft_reset() function
Posted by Arnd Bergmann 16 hours ago
From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

While looking at the glob symbols shared between the cpsw drivers,
I noticed that soft_reset() is the only one that is missing a proper
namespace prefix, and will pollute the kernel namespace, so rename
it to be consistent with the other symbols.

Fixes: c5013ac1dd0e1 ("net: ethernet: ti: cpsw: move set of common functions in cpsw_priv")
Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

I just realized that this patch needs to come before
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20260331161254.3450606-1-arnd@kernel.org/T/#u

The change itself is not important, but it renames a symbol that
gets exported under the new name by the other patch, so either
this gets applied first, or the other one needs a trivial change
to fix the export.

Neither of the patches apply by themselves. Please post a proper series
once you're reading (and remember about the 24h spacing between postings
on netdev).
