Rob has been asking before to have drivers/of/of_mdio.c be merged or at 
least relocated within drivers/net/phy where it would naturally belong. 
As a preliminary step towards ACPI support that would seem reasonable to do.

Then, as Grant suggests you can start re-factoring as much as possible 
with using fwnode_handle.
