In the PHYLINK_DEV operation type, the PHYLINK infrastructure can work
without an attached net_device. For printing usecases, instead, a struct
device * should be passed to PHYLINK using the phylink_config structure.

Also, netif_carrier_* calls ar guarded by the presence of a valid
net_device. When using the PHYLINK_DEV operation type, we cannot check
link status using the netif_carrier_ok() API so instead, keep an
internal state of the MAC and call mac_link_{down,up} only when the link
changed.

Should not this patch be re-ordered to be after patch #8? Other than that:

Not necessarily.
Even without patch #8 ("net: phylink: Add phylink_{printk,err,warn,info,dbg} macros") everything will function properly with the mention that in case of PHYLINK_DEV a NULL net_device will get printed.

I chose to add the phylink_printk after this patch because now we have the whole picture.
