This patch series is provoking depmod dependency cycles for me and
it bisected down to this patch (although I think later patches in
the series add further cycles).

The problems emerge when running modules_install either directly or
indirectly via packaging rules such as bindeb-pkg.

~~~
make -j16 INSTALL_MOD_PATH=$PWD/modules modules_install
...
  INSTALL sound/usb/misc/snd-ua101.ko
  INSTALL sound/usb/snd-usb-audio.ko
  INSTALL sound/usb/snd-usbmidi-lib.ko

depmod: ERROR: Cycle detected: fwnode_mdio -> of_mdio -> fwnode_mdio
depmod: ERROR: Found 2 modules in dependency cycles!
~~~

Kconfig can be found here:
https://gist.github.com/daniel-thompson/6a7d224f3d3950ffa3f63f979b636474

This Kconfig file is for a highly modular kernel derived from the Debian
5.10 arm64 kernel config. I was not able to reproduce using the defconfig
kernel for arm64.
