Oh, I could also see this error when making it a module compilation.
I will fix it in v2. As an alternative to device_is_bound() i think we
can check the presence of drvdata. Similar approach i see it in ongoing
onboard_usb_hub driver series[1]. Does it look ok?/any other suggestions?
- if (mdio_pdev && !device_is_bound(&mdio_pdev->dev))
+ if (mdio_pdev && !dev_get_drvdata(&mdio_pdev->dev))

Listed in v21 changes.
Please let me know if there is any other feedback on the
shared MDIO dependency implementation.
Thanks,
Radhey
