It's just a patch I had half-baked in a tree for over a year, so I sent 
it. It didn't occur to me there is now a way to do this in DT, since the 
patch was in my tree for so long and I only dealt with the ar803x PHY 
recently. I will try and convert this to DT next time I have the board 
on my desk, but if someone is faster ... even better.
