Please don't mix fixes and development work in one patchset. Please
post this to applying to net, not net-next.

phy_set_bits_mmd() will not return an error if the register does not
exist. There is no such indication for MDIO. This is going to do a
read/modify/write. That read might get 0xffff, or random junk. And
then the write back will be successful. The only time
phy_read()/phy_write return error is when there is a problem within
the bus master, like its clock gets turned off and the transfer times
out.
So it is good to document you are accessing a register which might not
exist, but there is no need to ignore the return code.
