Hi John

In what order? The master interface has to be up first before any
slave interface is configured up.

It does not need to. There are two options here:

1) The PHY has no interrupt. phylib will poll the PHY once per second
   for link changes.

2) The PHY has in interrupt. Link changes will cause the interrupt to
   fire, and the phylib will then read the current state.

For PHYs embedded within a switch driver by mv88e6xxx interrupts
should always be used.

I will do some testing on my espressobin.
