Context: I’m working on a series of patches to support MDIO-less configuration of mv88e6xxx switches. They have not been submitted to netdev yet as they’re dependent on other unsubmitted patches from another kernel developer. The code above is a WIP so fixes have been squashed. You’ll have to take my word that I found Claude Code helpful in reviewing the code, I’m not going to dig around for the previous commit hash to satisfy some HN comment.

To the point of compilers warning about uninitialized variables, this surprised me; perhaps I was building without optimization.
