Felix,

I took the easy route, its just phyid1 & phyid2.  The "A" version was
submitted by some one else and it might be possible to combine them into
one DP83843 stuct by using a shift factor of 8 ( 2nd eliment in the
phy_info struct" the diff between 0x20005c23 &  0x20005c20 is the model
revision number.

Maybe MAX_NUM_PHYS needs to be renamed to MAX_PHY_ADDR to be more clear.
