Wouldn't this be a little bit confusing? But actually yes... interrupt
handler and cable test have the same regs. My main concern is about the
phy_dev flags and the dbg regs that I think are different and would
create some confusion. If this It's not a proble, sure I can rework this
a put in the at803x.c phy driver.
