I think a useful final patch may be to make stmmac_probe_config_dt()
static so there aren't any new uses of stmmac_probe_config_dt().

Also note that net-next is now closed, so please wait until after -rc1
for net-next to re-open, or post as RFC. Thanks.

oops, I didn't notice this cycle of window is closed, I will wait for next
