You have just memcpy'd everything from config into mrc. Doesn't this
already include "regmap" and "valid_addr" ?

However, these are the only two things used, so does it really make
sense to allocate the full mdio_regmap_config structure, or would a
smaller data structure (of one pointer and one u8) be more appropriate?
