Reverting the offending patch fixes the problem. Reverting the same patch
in v4.9.y fixes the problem there as well.

I did a wild guess and found that applying

7b9a88a390da net: phy: Fix PHY unbind crash

instead of reverting the offending patch fixes the problem in both
v4.4.y and v4.9.y.

Copying Florian and David for additional input.
