[PATCH net v3 1/2] net: phy: Introduce PHY_ID_SIZE — minimum size for PHY ID string

[Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com>]

The PHY_ID_FMT defines the format specifier "%s:%02x" to form
the PHY ID string, where the maximum of the first part is defined
in MII_BUS_ID_SIZE, including NUL terminator, and the second part
is implied to be 3 as the maximum address is limited to 32, meaning
that 2 hex digits is more than enough, plus ':' (colon) delimiter.
However, some drivers, which are using PHY_ID_FMT, customise buffer
size and do that incorrectly. Introduce a new constant PHY_ID_SIZE
that makes the minimum required size explicit, so drivers are
encouraged to use it.
