Re: [PATCH 3.7.0-rc4] of/net/mdio-gpio: Fix pdev->id issue when using devicetrees.

From: Srinivas Kandagatla <redacted>

When the mdio-gpio driver is probed via device trees, the platform
device id is set as -1, However the id is re-used in the code while
creating an mdio bus.
So, setting up the id via aliases from device tree is a sensible
solution to fix this issue.
