Commit b4d2394d01bc ("dsa: Replace mii_bus with a generic host device") replaces mii_bus with a generic host_dev, and introduces dsa_host_dev_to_mii_bus() to support conversion from host_dev to mii_bus. However, in some cases it uses to_mii_bus to perform that conversion. Since host_dev is not the phy bus device but typically a platform device, this fails and results in a crash with the affected drivers.
