We could do it, but it'd be a pretty big hack. Something like the
following. Phylink would need to be modified to grab the lock before
every op and check if the PCS is dead or not. This is of course still
not optimal, since there's no way to re-attach a PCS once it goes away.

IMO a better solution is to use devlink and submit a patch to add
notifications which the MAC driver can register for. That way it can
find out when the PCS goes away and potentially do something about it
(or just let itself get removed).
