Andy,
Thanks for the updated patch.  Now I am able to load the modules once
again so I can continue trying to make use of the PAL with my USB
devices.

Question for you, I'm trying to setup my mdio_bus driver and I don't
know how I can get it registered at the appropriate time.  I can't read
the PHY IDs until after I've diddled some bits on the device which
happens in my USB probe function.  If I register the mdio_bus on module
load, the loop that tries to read the valid PHYs is not going to work.
Do you think it might be possible to have an alternate
mdio_bus_register() that doesn't try to detect the phys that are
present?  Maybe there would be either a function I could call later to
do the auto-detect or to manually add a phy address to the bus?
