Using the devm_alloc_etherdev() function simplifies the error
path. I also patch the message to use dev_info().

Okay, I see you do devm_ here.. please reorder the patches, then.

slight typo in subject

Maybe it's better to avoid changing this driver.
Is this device still sold?  It's 15+ years old.

Probably nicer to split the assignment and test too.

and this should probably be

	netdev_info(ndev, "MII PHY %d on %s\n", plat->phy, npe_name(port->npe));

But there are 30+ printks in this file, so why just this one?

I am converting the whole platform to device tree so I need to
change this and many other drivers.

The rationale has been explained elsewhere but here it is for your
convenience:

A major reason why IXP4xx silicon is still produced and deployed is
the operating conditions. If you look at for example the Gateworks
Cambria GW2358-4 network processor you notice the strictly
military operating conditions:

Temperature: -40°C to +85°C
Humidity (non-condensing): 20% to 90%
MTBF (mean time before failure): 60 Years at 55°C

We have good reasons to believe that these are used in critical
systems that are not consumer products and do not adhere to
consumer product life cycle expectations. Think more like this:
