Hello Simon,

Recently [1], mv643xx_eth was changed to make use of mvmdio. However,
this change introduces two problems when mvmdio and mv643xx_eth are
built as modules:
- mvmdio is not loaded automatically by udev
- mv643xx_eth oopses when it can't find its PHY, i.e. when mvmdio is
not yet loaded
The first problem can be fixed easily by adding a module alias for the
respective platform device. The proposed fix for the second problem
uses EPROBE_DEFER as suggested by Thomas Petazzoni when the driver
can't find its PHY.
These patches apply on top of Florian Fainelli's patchset. They have
been tested on Marvel Kirkwood non-DT.
Both fixes look good to me, thanks for fixing this!
