Changes since v2:
   - adapted to the generic PHY API v9: use phy_set/get_drvdata(),
   - fixed of_xlate callback to return ERR_PTR() instead of NULL,
   - namespace cleanup, put "GPL v2" as MODULE_LICENSE, removed pr_debug,
   - removed phy id check in __set_phy_state().

Sorry for one stupid question here, why do you use spin_lock_irqsave()
rather than spin_lock(),
I don't see the irq handler will use this spinlock anywhere in this c file.
Yes, there is no chance the PHY users could call the phy ops from within
an interrupt context. Especially now when there is a per phy object
mutex used in the PHY operation helpers. So I'll replace it with plain
spin_lock/unlock. Thank you for the review.
Now that PHY ops is already protected, do you really need a spin_lock here?

Thanks
Kishon
