phys and generic PHYs are very different things, completely different
API etc. They cannot be merged.

The usb module has been around for a long time, so it cannot be
changed. The phy driver is new, not in a released kernel. So we can
still rename it without causing problems.

I still want to understand the naming here. If you look at most
Ethernet switches with integrated PHYs, the PHYs have their own naming
scheme, separate from the switch, because they are independent IP. So
i would prefer this driver by named after the PHY name, not the switch
name. That might solve the naming conflict, mt123x for the PHY, mt7530
for the switch driver.
