[PATCH net] net: phy: guard against accessing a NULL features bitmap

[Camelia Groza]

Since phy driver features became a link_mode bitmap, phy drivers that
don't have a list of features configured will cause the kernel to crash
when probed.

Hi Camelia

A NULL features is a driver bug. So i would prefer to solve this
differently.

Please make phy_driver_register() do a WARN_ON(!new_driver->features)
and return -EINVAL.

Do you know of a specific driver which as a NULL value? We should fix
that as well.

Thank
	Andrew

I wasn't aware that features are mandatory. I'll make the change.

Yes, there are five drivers that don't have features configured: BCM8706, BCM8727, CS4340, TN2020 and KSZ8873MLL.

I'm planning to send patches on net-next for the Cortina and Teranetics ones at least, but fixing the generic crash was my priority.

Thanks,
Camelia

It was not origionally, but really it should be now.

O.K, will take the others.
