Is there a specific reason why c22 is probed first? Reversing the order
would solve the issue we speak about here.
c45-probing of c22-only PHY's shouldn't return false positives
(at least at a first glance).
That would likely cause problems for the I2f MDIO driver, since a
C45 read is indistinguishable from a C22 write on the I2C bus.
