If you are sure you need it I'm not against that. But assuming you have udev
in your system it should also work like this, without request_module():
1. modprobe controller_module -> phy device is created in the kernel, uevent sent
2. udev receives uevent, finds matching module and does modprobe phy_module
Remaining part is as before: phy_module registers the driver which gets matched with
phy device; probe() is called which registers v4l2 subdev which then is registered
to v4l2_device through the v4l2-async mechanism.
All this assumes udev is running and modules are installed in /lib/modules/$(uname -r).
E.g. there should be your module alias as shown by modinfo phy_module in
/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/modules.alias.

I think these patches will be merged in v4.14-rc1, so together with your driver.
You could apply them locally and indicate that your series depends on them in
the cover letter.

This flag indicates that the v4l2 subdev device node (/dev/v4l-subdev?)
should be created for this subdevice.
