Normal kernel policy is not to merge something if it has no users. As
i said in another reply, the only users of regmap-mdio are going to be
Ethernet switch and funky mdio devices. So far, i've not seen a C45
Ethernet switch, nor a funky c45 mdio device. So i suggest we leave it
on the mainline list until some hardware which could use it comes
along.
