I think what you have is a good start. It actually requires somebody
who is interesting in testing to take it further. And i doubt a pure
genphy driver is sufficient, i guess it will need a driver specific
for simulation. There is some things you can test via the PHY driver
API, and other stuff you need to emulate registers. So it will end up
with a hybrid of both.
