How generic is this gmii2rgmii IP block? Could it be used with any
GMII and RGMII device?

Should it be placed in drivers/net/phy, so making it easier to reuse?

Also, Russell Kings phylink might be a more natural structure for
this. It is hard to know when those patches will land, but it might be
worth looking at.
