PHY device support

 * Option: PHYLIB
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * (on/off/module) PHY Device support and infrastructure
 * depends on NET_ETHERNET && (BROKEN || !ARCH_S390)
 * Ethernet controllers are usually attached to PHY devices. This option provides infrastructure for managing PHY devices.
