Fixed in the "net" tree with:

checks and NULL deref in phy_attach_direct()"), applies fine to net-next
as well.

Correct, this fixes my setup. Shouldn't this be submitted to net-next as
well then?

Hi Vivien

David will at some point merge net into net-next.

Until then, you can work around the issue by enabling the PHY drivers
for you hardware. You are also likely to gain a few nice features,
like PHY interrupts rather than polling, maybe some temperature
sensors, PHY statistics, etc...
