Generally the order is init and then power on. During init the driver can
perform the various setting for initializing the PHY which includes PLL
programming, calibration etc.. And then power on which actually starts the PHY
so that PHY can now transfer and receive data.

phy-core has a call to try_module_get with this .owner so that the module is
not removed after phy_get. Maybe we can make phy-core to handle it in some
other way. Need to check.
