Wasn't there a "generic PHY" patch posted some time ago that might fix this?
That would be great, but I havn't seen/can't find one.

I'm pretty sure the generic phy was to allow the use of generic real PHYs instead of having to add a new entry for each one. Since the PHY page/register layout is IEEE-specified, this *should* work for any old 10/100 PHY out there. I think what Joakim is asking for (and I'm in the same boat) is to have a 'fake' PHY so when we connect the TSEC to a switch that doesn't implement MDIO, a happy response is returned during driver initialization. Correct me if I'm wrong here...
