This fixes the following error caused by a race condition between phydev->adjust_link() and a MDIO transaction in the phy interrupt handler. The issue was reproduced with the ethernet FEC driver and a micrel KSZ9031 phy.

With the FEC driver phydev->adjust_link() calls fec_enet_adjust_link() calls fec_stop()/fec_restart() and both these function reset and temporary disable the FEC disrupting any MII transaction that could be happening at the same time.
fec_enet_adjust_link() and phy_read() can be running at the same time when we have one additional interrupt before the phy_state_machine() is able to terminate.

whoops, I forgot the changelog, sorry.
v2: Added fixes tag, corrected commit message formatting (tab vs space)
Hello, I have one question about the process of patch/fixes backporting to old stable kernel.
Assuming the following patch will be deemed correct and applied it will have to be eventually backported.
This patch will apply cleanly on v5.15+, but some work is needed to backport to v5.10 or older.
Should I send a patch for the older kernels once the fix is merged? Reading Documentation/process/stable-kernel-rules.rst it was not clear to me what to do in this "mixed" situations.
Thanks a lot, Francesco

You will get an email from me if it does not apply to older kernels and you can respond with the backported fix then.
