I don't have a lot of things against it, but preventing driver authors
to use PLATFORM_DEVID_AUTO just to use the framework is likely going to
piss some people off.

Perhaps we can start with this approach and fix things later ? At least
it ungates all the PHY drivers which are depending on this framework
(quite a few already). If everybody agrees with this approach, I'd be ok
with it too.

cheers
