I have tested it on Orange Pi PC 2, that uses only phy-supply, but not
phy-io-supply, and the kernel now prints:

[    1.410137] dwmac-sun8i 1c30000.ethernet: 1c30000.ethernet supply phy-io not found, using dummy regulator

I have also tested it on Orange Pi PC, that doesn't use external phy, and
instead of:

[    1.081378] dwmac-sun8i 1c30000.ethernet: No regulator found

The kernel now prints:

[    1.112752] dwmac-sun8i 1c30000.ethernet: 1c30000.ethernet supply phy not found, using dummy regulator
[    1.112814] dwmac-sun8i 1c30000.ethernet: 1c30000.ethernet supply phy-io not found, using dummy regulator

Ethernet works in both cases, so that should cover all existing combinations. :)

regards,
	Ondrej
