	With that patch fixed.c now fully emulates MDIO bus, thus no need to duplicate PHY layer functionality. That, in turn, drastically simplifies the code, and drops down line count. As an additional bonus, now there is no need to register MDIO bus for each PHY, all emulated PHYs placed on the platform fixed MDIO bus. There is also no more need to pre-allocate PHYs via .config option, this is all now handled dynamically.

	device_bind_driver() error code returning has been fixed. release() function has been written, so that to free resources in correct way; the release path is now clean. Before the rework, it used to cause Device 'fixed@100:1' does not have a release() function, it is broken and must be fixed. BUG: at drivers/base/core.c:104 device_release() Call Trace: [<ffffffff802ec380>] kobject_cleanup+0x53/0x7e [<ffffffff802ec3ab>] kobject_release+0x0/0x9 [<ffffffff802ecf3f>] kref_put+0x74/0x81 [<ffffffff8035493b>] fixed_mdio_register_device+0x230/0x265 [<ffffffff80564d31>] fixed_init+0x1f/0x35 [<ffffffff802071a4>] init+0x147/0x2fb [<ffffffff80223b6e>] schedule_tail+0x36/0x92 [<ffffffff8020a678>] child_rip+0xa/0x12 [<ffffffff80311714>] acpi_ds_init_one_object+0x0/0x83 [<ffffffff8020705d>] init+0x0/0x2fb [<ffffffff8020a66e>] child_rip+0x0/0x12 Also changed the notation of the fixed phy definition on mdio bus to the form of <speed>+<duplex> to make it able to be used by gianfar and ucc_geth that define phy_id strictly as "%d:%d" and cleaned up the whitespace issues.
