Respin might need a complete rework of the patch as with the
conversion of 88e639x to phylink_pcs (introduced with commit
e5b732a275f5fae0f1342fb8cf76de654cd51e50) the original code flow
has completely changed so it will not be as simple as finding a new
place to stick the patch. 
The new phylink mostly hides away mv88e6xxx_chip struct which is needed 
to identify the correct device and writing to relevant registers has also
changed in favor of mv88e639x_pcs struct etc.
I think you can see where I am going with this. In this sense I am not sure 
about keeping the Reviewed-by tag, more likely a complete rewrite 
should be done.
I will repost V3 once I figure out how to make it work with the new
framework.
