It is quite common to have the MII bus driver as a sub driver of the
MAC driver, if they are tightly coupled. The MII drivers in
drivers/net/phy are all independent of the MAC driver and use a
different space in the register sets. This does not seem the case
here, so i think the split you have made is O.K, and i don't see a
need to move it into phy.
