I remember making a similar attempt in past [1], but that time we couldn't
reach an agreement as to whether group the phy drivers based on
vendors or based on the type of phy.

If you are fine with grouping the drivers for each vendor, I hope you can
consider picking that patch (I can respin the patch based on linux-phy/next).
Other driver maintainers were also cool with that older patch.

Let me know your comments.
