Subject: [PATCH net v2 0/3] net: phy: Unbind/bind fixes

Hi all,

This patch series addresses the inability to safely unbind and bind
PHY drivers by making the appropriate checks throught PHYLIB where we
may be directly responding to user-space queries, as well as from within
the kernel state machine.

The second patch makes the unbind -> bind working by taking care of the
PHY state machine state.

Changes in v2:

- fixed net: phy: Fix lack of reference count on PHY driver against
  the Generic PHY driver which is special

Florian Fainelli (3):
  net: phy: Fix PHY module checks
  net: phy: Check phydev->drv
  net: phy: Fix PHY driver bind and unbind events
