[PATCH v3 net 0/1] net: macb: Fix regression breaking non-MDIO fixed-link PHYs

[Ahmad Fatoum <a.fatoum@pengutronix.de>]

commit 739de9a1563a ("net: macb: Reorganize macb_mii bringup") broke
initializing macb on the EVB-KSZ9477 eval board.

The board's SoC has a macb MAC connected to the KSZ9477 over RGMII, this
is represented as a fixed-link as follows in the (non-mainline) device tree:

	macb0: ethernet@f0028000 {
		phy-mode = "rgmii";
		gpios = <&pioB 28 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
		reset-gpios = <&pioC 31 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
		status = "okay";
		
		fixed-link {
			speed = <1000>;
			full-duplex;
		};
	};

The following patch fixes the regression by partially reverting the offending
commit and can be backported to stable.

Follow-up patches that popped up during review will be sent when net-next opens.
They improve error reporting and add a "mdio" subtree binding to contain macb's
MDIO-managed PHYs, similar to the binding in other drivers.

This is v3. v2 started with
Message-Id: <20180820121238.7779-1-a.fatoum@pengutronix.de>.
without explicit marking as v2.
v1 started with Message-Id: <20180814141240.9085-1-a.fatoum@pengutronix.de>.

Changes introduced in v1 and v2 are noted in-line in their respective patches.
