Not a regression. It's like this for a loooong time.

AFAIK PCI(e) cards don't have external power amplifier, so this code
is most likely used for some fancy SoCs only. There are 3 known SoCs
with N-PHY rev 5 or 6: BCM4717A1, BCM4718A1 & BCM4716B0.

So we may consider taking it for 4.2 without any "Fixes: " line but I
wouldn't care too much about Cc-ing stable.

Hauke: do you agree?
