Yes this is the warning shown here [0] and this is coming from
the 'Generic PHY stmmac-0:00' device.

The warning is occurring when device_bind_driver() is called in
phy_attach_direct() [1]. The device-tree ethernet node for this
board can be found here [2].

So this is a generic phy driver that has been around for quite some
time AFAICT.

We have automated testing that checks for new warnings with -next and
this is definitely new and the bisect points to this change.
