If Russell is okay with such a model where the PHY state machine still
manages the interrupts at large, and only calls a specific callback for
specific even handling, that's fine. We might have to allow PHY drivers
to let them specify what they want to get passed to
request_threaded_irq(), or leave it to them to do it.
