I don't think so and I don't think it is doable for now on PSE. There is nothing
that could get the PSE control of a dummy PSE controller driver. We need either
the support for a dummy PHY driver similarly to netdevsim or the support for the
MDI ports.
By luck Maxime Chevallier is currently working on both of these tasks and had
already sent several times the patch series for the MDI port support.
