Looks better, there's a minor thing that I missed, sorry:

Would:
		if (PTR_ERR(serdes_phy) == -ENODEV)
			serdes_phy = NULL;
		else if (IS_ERR(serdes_phy))
			return PTR_ERR(serdes_phy);
		else
			phy_init(serdes_phy);

be neater? There is no need to check IS_ERR() before testing PTR_ERR().
One may also prefer the pointer-comparison approach:

		if (serdes_phy == ERR_PTR(-ENODEV))

to remove any question about PTR_ERR(p) on a !IS_ERR(p) value too, but
it really doesn't make any difference.

I suspect this is just a code formatting issue, I'd think the compiler
would generate reasonable code either way, so as I said above, it's
quite minor.
