Agere, now LSI, ET1101/ET1101C is PCIe Gigabit etherenet controller
so I think it has nothing to do with wireless controllers.  In
other words, wireless drivers do not need mii(4).  The instance of
ukphy(4) may come from gem(4), see the output of 'devinfo -rv'. The
DSP fixup of PHY is to adjust signal handing of controller firmware.
