Making fs_enet phy unaware

Hi all,

how can I avoid that fs_enet driver uses its associated phy? My problem
is that my FEC is attached to a switch  and three other ports of the
switch are connected to three physical connectors. I don't want that the
driver bothers about the PHYs.=20

If you search the archives you'll find patches by Vitaly Bordug and Andy
Fleming for so-called 'Fixed PHY'.  I've been using this for quite a
while and it works quite well.
