This is strange. Why not just drop the free? It seems bad to delete the phydev just because the mdio interface is not there, especially in stop().
[Ashish Kumar] To keep the flow consistent of XFI(which is phy-less) to other phy based interface, in ldpaa_eth_open there are some dummy allocation, which is freed in the end in stop().
        if ((bus == NULL) &&
            (enet_if == PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_XGMII)) {
                printf("%s %s %d\n",__FILE__, __func__, __LINE__);
                priv->phydev = (struct phy_device *)
                                malloc(sizeof(struct phy_device));
                memset(priv->phydev, 0, sizeof(struct phy_device));

                priv->phydev->speed = SPEED_10000;
                priv->phydev->link = 1;
                priv->phydev->duplex = DUPLEX_FULL;
        }
