[PATCH net-next v2] net: ethernet: stmmac: dwmac-rk: Make the clk_phy could be used for external phy

[Chaoyi Chen]

From: Chaoyi Chen <chaoyi.chen@rock-chips.com>

For external phy, clk_phy should be optional, and some external phy
need the clock input from clk_phy. This patch adds support for setting
clk_phy for external phy.

This patch doesn't seem to apply to net-next/main, please rebase &
repost.
