I guess you grepped for MII_ADDR_C45 and had a look who
actually handled it correctly. Correct?

Let's say we mark these as either MDIOBUS_C45 or MDIOBUS_C45_C22,
can we then drop MDIOBUS_NO_CAP and make MDIOBUS_C22 the default
value (i.e. value 0) or do we have to go through all the mdio drivers
and add bus->probe_capabilities = MDIOBUS_C22 ? Grepping for
{of_,}mdiobus_register lists quite a few of them.
