  If an error occurs after a successful ixp4xx_mdio_register() call, it
should be undone by a corresponding ixp4xx_mdio_remove().

Add the missing call in the error handling path, as already done in the
remove function.

What about error when mdio_bus is 0? It means that mdio_register can
return no error, but sth happen and there is no need to call mdio_remove
in this case?

I mean:
 /* If the instance with the MDIO bus has not yet appeared,
  * defer probing until it gets probed.
  */
  if (!mdio_bus)
	return -EPROBE_DEFER;

netif_napi_add_weight() doesn't need to be unrolled in case of error
(call netif_napi_del() or something)?

Thanks

Indeed, I think a closer look is warranted, this code operates on
global variables, it's also not clear to me whether it's safe to always
call remove, even if has_mdio is false?
