Please use MII_88E1121_PHY_PAGE (renamed if necessary) instead of 22 here.

If this phy_read() were to fail...

... this function may incorrectly return success if the phy_write()
succeeds.

Some mdio controllers verify turn around during read operations and
return failure if the phy fails to drive the data line low. On write
transactions turn around is driven by the controller, and failures may
go undetected.
