I've just checked my logs and I can confirm that it was atphy(4) even in =
stable/8.

Sep 26 15:55:19 nas kernel: atphy0: <Atheros F1 10/100/1000 PHY> PHY 0 =
on miibus0
Sep 26 15:55:19 nas kernel: atphy0:  none, 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, =
100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, 1000baseT-FDX, 1000baseT-FDX-master, auto

I'll post more info when I try again stable/8 on this hardware.

Thanks!
