This is part of why i said there should be a Kconfig symbol
CONFIG_RUST_PHYLIB_BINDING or similar. With only patches 2 and 3, that
would not exists, and so you cannot enable the driver. Once all the
patches meet up in linux-next, you have both parts, and you can enable
it.

What are the merge conflicts looking like? What has happened in the
past? Or is this the first driver to actually get this far towards
being merged?
