Re: [PATCH 1/3] net: phy: Check phy_driver ready before accessing

Agreed. Another thing that looks suspicious to me is the driver
overrides the private data of the device it's attaching too, in the
`priv->phy_dev->priv = priv` bit. Seems like that could cause all
sorts of driver corruption problems.

Ah, yes. That is very broken. Many PHYs will just explode sometime
later, since they use phdev->priv.

But fixing that is going to require more drastic changes to how this
driver works. So it'd be worth applying this patch in the mean time.

Patches welcome.
