On one side I need to address the request to handle phydev specific
thing withing the PHYlib framework. On other side, I can't do it without
openen a pandora box of build dependencies. It will be a new main-side-quest
to resolve build dependency of net/ethtool/ and PHYlib. The workaround is to
put this functions to the header.
