Subject: git pull request: phylib updates

Hi,

Available at the git url below are a couple of phylib updates: one
minor semantic fix, the addition of mdiobus_{read,write} to be able to
access mii buses directly (without having to go through the phy layer),
and dynamic allocation of struct mii_bus structures so that we can tie
them to a struct device and make them appear in the device tree.

The last change in particular is invasive since it needs a change in
all mdio bus drivers, as they will now need to call mdiobus_alloc()
and mdiobus_free() to allocate and free mii bus structures.  In
particular, embedding a struct mii_bus inside another (driver-private)
structure is now no longer allowed.

The patches were reviewed by the phylib maintainer and ACKed, and he
was OK with me sending a pull request for them.


thanks,
Lennert
