If it's OK not to have both helpers to alloc and destroy in different
files, then I'll move it :)

Well I'll have to include the whole phy_link_topology.h in
net/core/dev.c, and I was trying to avoid including that whole header,
and keep the included content to a bare minimum.

Well if we add more things to the link topology, then it's going to be
easy to forget updating that without clear helpers for alloc/destroy,
don't you think ?

I can try to squeeze another iteration before net-next closes.
