Can you elaborate a bit on why this approach is broken? The PHY used to work 
for me until 952c5ca1, and with this applied.

Adding linuxppc to Cc.

My board is P1011 based, the single core version of P1020, not P1010. In 
p1020si.dtsi I see no tbi node. In p1020rdb.dts I see a tbi node but only for 
mdio@25000, not mdio@24000, which is what I'm using.

Am I missing something?
