This patch implements a dynamic "ops" based PHY API.
This is needed in order to conveniently support future PHY types
to avoid the "switch"-hell.

This patch does not change any functionality. It just moves lots
of code from one place to another and adjusts it for the changed
data structures.

Due to the size, this patch is not inlined.
Please find it here:

You may notice that after this patch is applied the file "phy.c" will
still contain some unused code.
This will be fixed in a future patch by moving that code to "phy_a.c".
I do not want to further bloat this patch. It's already big enough.

I'm sorry for pushing such a big patch upstream. :)

Please apply for the next bugfix push, if you want to get Dave _really_ mad.
Apply to 2.6.28, if you decide that he would probably kill you. ;)
(I think he would *hint*)
