Subject: [PATCH 2/2] net: mdio: fix owner field for mdio buses registered using ACPI

Bus ownership is wrong when using acpi_mdiobus_register() to register an
mdio bus. That function is not inline, so when it calls
mdiobus_register() the wrong THIS_MODULE value is captured.

Fixes: 803ca24d2f92 ("net: mdio: Add ACPI support code for mdio")
