This commit splitting the driver didn't introduced the issue, it only
moved code around. You can remove this Fixes tag. (You usually/should
have a single Fixes tag per patch).

> Fixes: ab2bf93393571 ("net: phy: mscc: 1588 block initialization")

The PTP and the MACsec support were introduced in separate patches (and
were introduced in different releases of the kernel). This patch is
fixing two different issues then, and its changes can't apply to the
same kernel versions. You should send them in two separate patches.

With the changes sent in two different patches, I would suggest to only
send the MACsec one as a fix for net (it's really fixing something, by
removing a non-compatible PHY from using MACsec) and the PTP one for
net-next as it's adding PTP support for two new PHYs (not fixing
anything).

When you do so, please use the following commands to format the patches,
to end up with the correct prefix in the subject:
git format-patch --subject-prefix='PATCH net' ...
git format-patch --subject-prefix='PATCH net-next' ...

Thanks!
Antoine
