I normally say a MAC driver should not be accessing PHY register...

You have the advantage of knowing it is integrated, so you know
exactly what PHY it is. But you still have a potential race condition
sometime in the future. You are not taking the phydev->lock, which is
something phylib nearly always does before accessing a PHY. If you
ever add control of the LEDs, that lack of locking could get you in
trouble.

Is this functionality always on LED0? It cannot be LED1 or LED2?
