Hi Calvin
I think this needs putting somewhere global, since you are effectively
defines how all ACPI MACs will find their PHY. This becomes the
defacto standard until the ACPI standards committee comes along and
tells you, you are doing it wrong, it should be like....
Does Linux have a location to document all its defacto standard ACPI
stuff? It would be good to document this somewhere.
