💅 arc_mdio_remove(9)

okay so bestie, you're in the Kernel API Manual and this is the whole entire page for arc_mdio_remove — it's short, it's sweet, it's lowkey iconic. let's get into it ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

arc_mdio_remove — the MDIO remove function. that's the whole job. she removes. she's a remover. 💅

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int arc_mdio_remove (struct arc_emac_priv *priv );

it takes one (1) argument and hands you back an int. no cap.

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• priv — a pointer to the ARC EMAC private data structure. yes, that private data structure. she needs it. don't forget it 🙈

---

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

so what does she actually do? arc_mdio_remove unregisters the MDIO and frees any associate memory for the MII bus. that's it, that's the vibe — she unregisters, she frees, she exits stage left 🧚✨

ngl, the original docs literally say "associate memory", so that's what we're quoting, fr fr. no edits, no notes 💀
