Subject: Re: [PATCH] net: usb: lan78xx: add weak dependency with micrel phy module

Hello Andrew,

I like the idea from Jakub, reading the associated phy from the hardware
in some way, although reading your last comments I don't know if it could
be possible for all the cases.
Let me ask you about this to understand better, if present,
always reading /sys/bus/mdio_bus/devices/*/phy_id,
could it be enough to get the possible related phy? 
And after this get the related phy module?

Thanks

Best regards
José Ignacio
