Despite having commented on v3, I am not going to leave a review tag on
this patch. Its contents has nothing to do with DSA, so I have no
technical objections of my own, plus little authority for an ack.
It basically boils down to whether the phylib maintainers are okay with
this use of mdio_device_remove() API from mdio_device drivers
themselves.

I did have a technical concern in v3 about a race between the finishing
of probe() and the call to mdio_device_remove(), which Daniel did not
respond to, but I suspect that __device_driver_lock() from
drivers/base/dd.c will serialize those.
