Trying to boot todays linus tree with fixed PHY support enabled gets me this:
Fixed PHY: Registered new driver
Device 'fixed at 100:1' does not have a release() function, it is broken and must be fixed.
------------[ cut here ]------------
Badness at drivers/base/core.c:107

The other thing is, how do I specify a fixed PHY
in OF?
