Scott and I have been talking, and right now it seems like a better  
idea might be to have the TBI address get assigned dynamically, based  
on where PHYs aren't.

It's non-trivial to do (though not difficult), but this way we won't  
have to regret creating a bad interface.  You just need to look at  
the mdio bus, and find out which addresses responded.  Then you  
create a variable in the gfar_private structure to hold what it gets  
set to, and make sure that gfar_configure_serdes uses that value  
instead of the TBIPA constant.
