The driver does not try to get a reference to the phy, and it does
not return -EPROBE_DEFER in any circumstance, so I assume it just
runs into an error condition on the first probe and does not
try again.
I don't really understand why the driver registers both an i2c_driver
and a platform_driver, or if that is required, but it may also
complicate getting deferred probing to work here.
