Would this be an acceptable patch for it:

Well, this other phy_read() probably needs exactly the same error
handling - and I doubt if we should actually try riding the reg when
the first one failed already?

Yes, you are right. The first question is, if such a patch is the
right way for fixing it, or if there is a better way ...
