I think nothing prevents you from sending your PHY driver to netdev. Just add a note to your series that it depends on those two patches. How and through which trees things are merged in the end can be figured out by the corresponding maintainers in the end. > > I'm not sure what the above "minimal device" means.

Especially without agreement of all involved parties. 2) It's at least questionable to claim that your forked-off patch can be considered to be "approved". 3) I really try to help and already confirmed to send out a separate series with only the patches you need as well to accelerate things for you. If you really want to help with that, you are very welcome to get involved in the discussion and review process. If you don't want to, that is fine too. But please stop adding confusion to those series by forking off patches. Besides that, I also don't appreciate your attitude, trying to put some kind of "ultimatum" on me. - Danilo
