These PHY drivers can be built as modules. You will end up with several
modules - at803x.ko, qca83xx.ko and common.ko. You don't mark any
functions in common.c as exported, no module license, no author, no
description. common.ko is way too generic a name as well.

Please think about this more and test building these drivers as a
module.
