Can you finish off this job by making the mv643xx_eth driver accept
the standard phy-handle OF property instead of using a phy address?

Ie the end result should be something like:

                smi0: mdio@...00 {
                        device_type = "mdio";
                        compatible = "marvell,orion-mdio";
                        reg = <0x72004 0x4>;

                        #address-cells = <1>;
                        #size-cells = <0>;
                        PHY1: ethernet-phy@1 {
                                reg = <1>;
                                device_type = "ethernet-phy";
                                phy-id = <0x01410e90>;
                        };
                };

                egiga0 {
                        device_type = "network";
                        compatible = "marvell,mv643xx-eth";
                        reg = <0x72000 0x4000>;
                        port_number = <0>;
                        phy-handle = <&PHY1>;
                        interrupts = <11>;
                        local-mac-address = [000000000002];  /* Filled by boot loader */
                };
