I ran into same problem when I tried this patch on my TS-7260. It turned out
that call to mdiobus_register() tries to access PHY registers and the hardware
is not fully initialized yet. On Sim.One there is no such problem and I guess
that the bootloader leaves the hardware in more consistent state or something.

I was able to boot both TS-7260 and Sim.One with following hack on top of
this patch:
