Hi Madalin

Please trim irrelevant text when replying.

If you keep reading in this thread, you will see this suggestion has
been made by others. I've got an implementation which moved MDIO and
PCS drivers into new directories. But it has a few 0-day issues at the
moment, so i don't know if i will get it ready before David closes
net-next.
