The problem is __of_mdiobus_register() :-(
If there is a node in DT, the scanning of all addresses is
disabled. It looks at just the addresses listed in DT. Plain
mdiobus_register() by default looks at all addresses to discover if a
PHY is there.
Hence when slave.c tries to connect to the PHY, only the PHY you
listed in DT has been found.
I don't see a way around this, at least not without adding a new
variant of of_mdiobus_register which combined DT with a bus scan.
