Thanks fo rthe suggestion! Though I don't that would work here since
our priv->phy_drv != phydev->drv, so it looks like we need to be
breaking it down in the driver.

I suppose this driver is a bit unusual since it represents a GMII to
RGMII bridge, so it's not actually a PHY driver on its own -- it just
sticks itself in between the actual PHY and the MAC.

Cheers,

Paul
