Well, technically you are right. But this logic was broken from the very
beginning. And as I also mentioned, both modules use the same set
function with the same error path, which means in current situation if
the first call is successful, the second one will also succeed. And
that's why it's acceptable

Yeah, but the problem here is that phy device is not really attached to
netdev, but rather to some private structure, which is not accessible by
the core, only driver can work with it, according to the original code.
But I might be missing something obvious here, if someone is at least a
bit aware of this code and can shed some light and confirm that phydev
is correctly set and attached to actual netdev, I'm happy to remove this
ugly part.
