[RFC PATCH net 2/2] net: dsa: wait for PHY to defer probe

[Vladimir Oltean <vladimir.oltean@nxp.com>]

DSA is among the 3 drivers which call phylink.*phy_connect() during
probe time (vs 11 doing so during ndo_open). So there is no guarantee
that the PHY driver will have finished probing by the time we connect to
it.

Use the newly introduced phylink_of_phy_connect_probe() to wait for this
to happen, and propagate the error code all the way to dsa_register_switch(),
which switch drivers call from their own probe function.

Notably, in dsa_tree_setup_ports() we treat errors on slave interface
registration as "soft" and continue probing the ports that didn't fail.
This is useful on systems which have riser cards with PHYs, and some of
these cards can be missing. But this logic needs to be adapted, since
-EPROBE_DEFER is an error we want to propagate regardless.

Fixes: 25396f680dd6 ("net: phylink: introduce phylink_fwnode_phy_connect()")
