Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/3] net: phy: remove modalias-based MDIO device bus
 matching

modalias-based MDIO device bus matching has only one user (dsa-loop),
where we can replace modalias-based matching with a simple custom
match function. This, and first patch of the series, lay the foundation
for removing modalias-based matching.

Heiner Kallweit (3):
  net: ethernet: adi: make name member of struct adin1110_cfg a pointer
  net: dsa: loop: remove MDIO device modalias
  net: phy: remove modalias-based mdio bus matching
