Net-next is closed so you will have to resend this:
https://netdev.bots.linux.dev/net-next.html
But I like what I see :)
Reviewed-by: Linus Walleij <linusw at kernel.org>
What I actually most of all want to achieve here is to support loading
the PHY as module, but I suspect that then the ethernet driver has to
be a module as well so modprobe can do its job.
Yours,
Linus Walleij
