We're using phy_mask in one of our projects, it's still using 2.6.29,
though. I think it's worth testing if it's still working.

Well, that was obviously something I overlooked / misinterpreted when I
tried to solve our problem!

As I understand it, phy_mask is a bitfield for setting which PHYs should
be enabled... Then this should have worked OK for us!

static struct at91_eth_data __initdata p298_macb_data = {
       .is_rmii        = 0,
       .phy_mask       = ~(1 << 8),
};

at91_add_device_eth(&p298_macb_data);

I've not tested it, but it should probably have worked.
