Added a generic PHY framework that provides a set of APIs for the PHY drivers
to create/destroy a PHY and APIs for the PHY users to obtain a reference to
the PHY with or without using phandle.

This framework will be of use only to devices that uses external PHY (PHY
functionality is not embedded within the controller).

The intention of creating this framework is to bring the phy drivers spread
all over the Linux kernel to drivers/phy to increase code re-use and to
increase code maintainability.

Comments to make PHY as bus wasn't done because PHY devices can be part of
other bus and making a same device attached to multiple bus leads to bad
design.

If the PHY driver has to send notification on connect/disconnect, the PHY
driver should make use of the extcon framework. Using this susbsystem
to use extcon framwork will have to be analysed.

You can find this patch series @
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kishon/linux-phy.git testing

Looks like there are not further comments on this series. Can you take this in
your misc tree?

Do you want me to queue these for you ? There are quite a few users for
this framework already and I know of at least 2 others which will show
up for v3.13.

Can you queue this patch series? There are quite a few users already for this
framework.

It will have to wait for 3.13 as the merge window for new features has
been closed for a week or so.  Sorry, I'll queue this up after 3.12-rc1
is out.

Alright, thanks.

Just a gentle ping on this one...

cheers
