Each one of these should be an individual patch.

The phy already have a lock.

I said you want to return an error is the PHY is using a speed your
converter cannot support. I don't see an error being raised here.

The comment at the top says you are taking a reference to the phy.
Here you take a reference to the mdio bus driver???

And how is this spinlock protecting anything?

Why are you disconnecting the phy?
