The below compile time error can be seen when PHYLIB is configured as a
module.

PHYLIB being a module leads to MDIO_BUS being a module as well while the
XPCS is still built-in. What should happen in this configuration is that
PCS_XPCS should be forced to build as module. However, that select only
acts in the opposite way so we should turn it into a depends.
Fix this up by explicitly depending on MDIO_BUS.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
