With newer versions of GCC, there is a panic in da850_evm_config_emac()
when booting multi_v5_defconfig in QEMU under the palmetto-bmc machine:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000020
pgd = (ptrval)
[00000020] *pgd=00000000
Internal error: Oops: 5 [#1] PREEMPT ARM
Modules linked in:
CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper Not tainted 5.15.0 #1
Hardware name: Generic DT based system
PC is at da850_evm_config_emac+0x1c/0x120
LR is at do_one_initcall+0x50/0x1e0
The emac_pdata pointer in soc_info is NULL because davinci_soc_info only
gets populated on davinci machines but da850_evm_config_emac() is called
on all machines via device_initcall().
Move the rmii_en assignment below the machine check so that it is only
dereferenced when running on a supported SoC.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
