Perhapse you can register this extra device in the probe() function:

struct mdio_device *mdiodev;

mdiodev = mdio_device_create(phydev->mdio.bus,
			     phydev->mdio.addr + EN8811H_PBUS_ADDR_OFFS);
if (IS_ERR(mdiodev))
	return PTR_ERR(mdiodev);

ret = mdio_device_register(mdiodev);
if (ret) {
	mdio_device_free(mdiodev);
	return ret;
}

priv->pbusdev = mdiodev;

In the define part add:

#define EN8811H_PBUS_ADDR_OFFS	8

Add to struct en8811h_priv:

struct mdio_device	*pbusdev;

And in the remove function:

mdio_device_remove(priv->pbusdev);
mdio_device_free(priv->pbusdev);

Then you can use the device:

ret = en8811hb_some_neat_function(priv->pbusdev);
