Hi Quentin

Could you use phy_modify_paged() here? This function only accesses a
single register, so using the wrapper should not have any
disadvantages. The same should apply for any function modifying a single
register.

phy_read_paged()? Any function which just accesses a single register
should try to use phy_read_paged(), phy_write_paged() or
phy_modify_paged() to avoid a lot of boilerplate code.
