Then selecting should be okay. Unless there's a desire for resets to
remain optional (which is going to rely on the timeout).

I don't see anything obviously problematic with that commit. (The
#phy-cells property added is wrong as ethernet phys don't use the phy
binding, but that should just be ignored). I'd check if the phy probed
and has a DT node associated with it.

fw_devlink tracks parent-child dependencies and maybe changing to
parent-grandchild affected that. We don't yet track 'phy-handle'
dependencies, but we'd have a circular one here if we did (though that
should be handled). Does "fw_devlink=off" help?
