Shouldn't this then be a bus property? I.e. mdiobus_has_c45_transfers().
I've have a similar helper introduced in 9/11:

static inline bool mdiobus_supports_c45(struct mii_bus *bus)
{
return bus->read_c45 && !bus->prevent_c45_access;
}

See above. Shouldn't it be mdiobus_...() then?

So this is where I cannot follow. Right now there is
(1) probing via bus scan
(2) probing via DT (or maybe also ACPI)

With (1) you we have scan_c22(), so if successful,
phy_has_c22_registers()
will return true, right? But it's not that clear for
phy_has_c45_registers(), because sometimes we prevent that scan. So
the PHY might have c45 but we don't know.

For (2) we don't even do a c22 scan if we know if its a C45 PHY (or the
other way around). I'm not sure we can reliably tell (at the end of this
series) if a phy has c22 register, c45 registers or both.
