Revision 3c880eb0205222bb062970085ebedc73ec8dfd14 authored by Geert Uytterhoeven on 25 January 2017, 10:39:50 UTC, committed by David S. Miller on 25 January 2017, 19:40:19 UTC
Commit 4567d686f5c6d955 ("phy: increase size of MII_BUS_ID_SIZE and
bus_id") increased the size of MII bus IDs, but forgot to update the
private definition in <linux/phy_led_triggers.h>.
This may cause:
  1. Truncation of LED trigger names,
  2. Duplicate LED trigger names,
  3. Failures registering LED triggers,
  4. Crashes due to bad error handling in the LED trigger failure path.

To fix this, and prevent the definitions going out of sync again in the
future, let the PHY LED trigger code use the existing MII_BUS_ID_SIZE
definition.

Example:
  - Before I had triggers "ee700000.etherne:01:100Mbps" and
    "ee700000.etherne:01:10Mbps",
  - After the increase of MII_BUS_ID_SIZE, both became
    "ee700000.ethernet-ffffffff:01:" => FAIL,
  - Now, the triggers are "ee700000.ethernet-ffffffff:01:100Mbps" and
    "ee700000.ethernet-ffffffff:01:10Mbps", which are unique again.
