ok, sorry :)

right, there is (at least by me) a confusion about generic phy and phy (here net-only phy) drivers.

mhm, maybe the naming should differ if generic phy and net-phy are that different. i guess there is no way to merge the net phys to the generic phys (due to linking to the net device drivers) to have only 1 phy section, right?

but if phy- prefix is used by generic phys, maybe eth- or net- can be used here (maybe with "phy" added)

something like

eth-phy-mt753x.ko

else i have no idea now...my patch renaming the musb-module seems not to be accepted due to possible breakage
