> Subject: [PATCH 2/2] phylib: add module owner to the mii_bus structure
> 
> Prevent unloading mii bus driver module when other modules 
> have references to some
> phydevs on that bus. Added a new member (module owner) to 
> struct mii_bus and added
> code to increment the mii bus owner module usage count on 
> phy_connect and decrement
> it on phy_disconnect
> 
> Set the module owner in the ucc_geth_mdio driver.
