Yeah, well. Thing is that I really don't like messing with the PHY code. :)
If we introduce a regression with one of these cleanups, it's really really hard
to debug and fix.

This one seems OK, though.

But next time please contact me first before you want to to cleanups to
the PHY code.

Example: The patch that cleaned up the PHY workarounds code introduced
a few really hard to debug regressions that took me weeks to fix.
So I will rather NACK patches, that are only for the sake of "hey this
looks nicer" or "this makes the code 3 bytes smaller".

Anyway, thanks for the patch.
