Hi Divya,

I think that this patch should be targeted at net-next, where
the problem seems to manifest, rather than net where it does not.
Likewise, this patch applies to net-next, but not net.

Also, I think the prefix for the patch should be "net: phy: microchip_t1".
And perhaps the following subject is a bit more descriptive.

	[PATCH net-next] net: phy: microchip_t1: depend on PTP_1588_CLOCK_OPTIONAL

As for the code change itself, it looks good to me.
