net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: Improve indirect addressing performance
Before this change, both the read and write callback would start out by asserting that the chip's busy flag was cleared. However, both callbacks also made sure to wait for the clearing of the busy bit before returning - making the initial check superfluous. The only time that would ever have an effect was if the busy bit was initially set for some reason. With that in mind, make sure to perform an initial check of the busy bit, after which both read and write can rely the previous operation to have waited for the bit to clear. This cuts the number of operations on the underlying MDIO bus by 25% Signed-off-by: Tobias Waldekranz <tobias@waldekranz.com> Reviewed-by: Andrew Lunn <andrew@lunn.ch> Signed-off-by: David S.
