PHY_IGNORE_INTERRUPT means that the PHY Lib will not poll the  
interface, nor will it register for the interrupt.  Actually, it  
would be best for a dummy PHY driver.  Take a look at the driver in  
drivers/phy/fixed.c.  It's there to provide that kind of interface.   
It looks like it uses -1, which is a problem, but my revision of this  
patch will fix that.

(Sorry for the odd delay.  I was sure I had clicked "send" on this one)
