This reverts commit 1838d6c62f57836639bd3d83e7855e0ee4f6defc.
This commit moved the ravb_mdio_init() call (and thus the of_mdiobus_register() call) from the ravb_probe() to the ravb_open() call. This causes a regression during system resume (s2idle/s2ram), as new PHY devices cannot be bound while suspended.

I noticed this too late, but please don't CC: stable on networking patches. We have our own workflow as per the netdev FAQ.
OK, will try to remember. I wanted to give a heads-up to stable that they've backported early a patch which turned out to have issues.
I've applied this but the inability to remove a module is an extremely serious bug and should be fixed properly.
Sure. As you stated in https://lore.kernel.org/linux-renesas-soc/20200820.165244.540878641387937530... that will need some rework in the MDIO subsystem...
Thanks!
