David, Is it possible to drop prev version of this patch from linux-next
- it breaks boot on many TI boards with -next.

i++?

Ideally, the simplest way is to save phy_node in slave_data, but ...
(see comment below).

I don't think you can move this out from here - it will break legacy boot :(

Personally, I see only one safe way to do it without big rework -
do second pass of DT parsing here to fill phy_node field.
