The modules are installed but I think I don't have udev :/ I'm
running this on an embedded platform called ARC AXS and I'm using
buildroot with minimal options.

Ok, will apply them locally and re-test.

Ok, will add for controller driver only then: I think for phy
this should not be added because controller is responsible to
manage phy entirely so creating a /dev/ which can be seen by
userspace can lead to confusion, maybe?
