In the RFC patchset, Andrew mentioned that there is not that much things in
common with mv88e6xxx, so I don't really see a value to add a separate header
file. Would that make sense to you guys to add the defines directly in
mv88e6060.c and squash that in the last patch?

Also I don't think the copyright notice is correct here.
