[PATCH,CFT] dynamic struct mii_bus allocation

Hi *,

You're listed as maintainer of one of the network drivers in the tree
that use phylib.  Available at the URL below is a change to the phylib
API (dynamic allocation of struct mii_bus, which is needed for hooking
up mdio buses into the device tree) that needs corresponding mdio bus
driver changes.  I've patched all mdio bus drivers I could find, and
tried not to break anything, but it's possible I might have
inadvertently broken something, so I'd like you to test these changes
and let me know if they work for you or not:

	git://git.marvell.com/phylib.git master

As a side-effect of the last patch, you should end up with a list of
mdio buses in your system in /sys/class/mdio_bus.


thanks,
Lennert
