Thank you for the patch! I found a similar patch for another driver [1].
So, we should apply this patch to the ravb driver.
[1]
fd5f375c1628 ("net-next: ax88796: Attach MII bus only when open")

I think "When this driver is a module, I cannot ..." is better.
> ravb does mdio_init() at the time of probe, and module->refcnt is incremented
I think "This is because that this driver calls ravb_mdio_init() ..." is better.
According to scripts/checkpatch.pl, I think it's better to be a maximum
75 chars per line in the commit description.

I think "Fixed to call ravb_mdio_init() at open and ravb_mdio_release() ..." is better.
However, I'm not sure whether that Sergei who is the reviwer of this driver accepts
the descriptions which I suggested though :)
By the way, I think you have to send this patch to the following maintainers too:
# We can get it by using scripts/get_maintainers.pl.
David S. Miller <davem@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> (maintainer:NETWORKING DRIVERS,commit_signer:8/8=100%)
Jakub Kicinski <kuba@xxxxxxxxxx> (maintainer:NETWORKING DRIVERS)
