This function is implemented in net core, but used only here.
So move the implementation here?

This is all which is left in this header. As this header is public anyway,
better move this definition to phy_link_topology.h?

Give the compiler a chance to remove this function if
CONFIG_PHYLIB isn't enabled.

if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PHYLIB) && topo) {
	xa_destroy(&topo->phys);
	kfree(topo);
	dev->link_topo = NULL;
}

Then the conditional compiling can be removed here.
