Don't you think keeping phy support in Ethernet driver will harm to keep it's generic approach? through development and reviews we always try to keep any driver generic so that it can be used by others. As of now apart from switch mv88e61xx, there is no phy support in driver/net/phy/. Being this first one- May I take this opportunity to help you to create a framework for PHYs? Regards..
