("net: usb: Correct PHY handling of smsc95xx")' is also present in 5.15:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/log/drivers/net/usb/smsc95xx.c?h=v5.15.27

so the fix should land in 5.15 too.

For 5.10, when the fix reaches Linus' tree, then I will ping
Dave/Jakub/Greg to apply the 3 latest smsc95xx commits
to 5.10 stable tree:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net.git/log/drivers/net/usb/smsc95xx.c?id=c70c453abcbf

I have been running 5.10 + the 3 commits above and no more smsc95xx
errors are seen.
