TL;DR, we need to get rid of a helper routine (introduced so that to
address review comments of v1), as it causes a depmod cycles when
fwnode_/of_/acpi_mdio are built as modules.
It can be done twofold:
a. 3 commits, i.e:
  Revert "net: mdiobus: Introduce fwnode_mdbiobus_register()"
  Revert "net/fsl: switch to fwnode_mdiobus_register"
  net: mvmdio: resign from fwnode_mdiobus_register
b. Same diff but squashed.

Please let me know your preference, so that I can do it properly up front.

Thanks,
Marcin
