Changes since v2:
- adapted to the generic PHY API v9: use phy_set/get_drvdata(),
- fixed of_xlate callback to return ERR_PTR() instead of NULL,
- namespace cleanup, put "GPL v2" as MODULE_LICENSE, removed pr_debug,
- removed phy id check in __set_phy_state().

Sorry for one stupid question here, why do you use spin_lock_irqsave()
rather than spin_lock(),
I don't see the irq handler will use this spinlock anywhere in this c
file.

Yes, there is no chance the PHY users could call the phy ops from within
an interrupt context. Especially now when there is a per phy object
mutex used in the PHY operation helpers. So I'll replace it with plain
spin_lock/unlock. Thank you for the review.

Now that PHY ops is already protected, do you really need a spin_lock here?

It is still needed, to synchronize access to the control register from
two separate PHY objects. The mutex is per PHY object, while the spinlock
is per PHY provider.

Thanks,
Sylwester
