So if I've understood correctly I should drop bcm5221_config_init() and
use brcm_fet_config_init() by checking the struct phy_driver .phy_id to
be PHY_ID_BCM5221.

But I don't understand how this can help to prevent the locking Russell
suggested, can you please elaborate more or point me and example?
As far as I've understood I should take care to lock sections to prevent
from interrupts to occur during shadow mode switching, is it correct?
So maybe you mean that if I do this in brcm_fet_config_init() it will be
fixed for the other phys using brcm_fet_config_init(), correct?

Sure, I will,

oh yes! You're right, I will then drop bcm5221_resume() in favor of
bcm5221_config_init(), so brcm_fet_config_init() with phy_id ==
PHY_ID_BCM5221 checks.
Thanks again
