Hi Igor
I'm still not convinced the PHY driver should be embedded in the MAC
driver, rather than using phylink.
If i remember correctly, it was because the MAC is involved in
determining if the link is up? That is nothing new. phylink expects
this. The MAC driver should call phylink_mac_change() when the MACs
SERDES goes up/down.
