Can we please handle this the same way as the other netc_get_phy_addr()
call path (from imx95_enetc_mdio_phyaddr_config())? Separate tests for
"if (addr < 0)" and a later "if (!addr)".

This leaves the possibility of future refactoring to make more logic
common, and makes that refactoring obvious for anyone, not having to
think whether subtle underlying differences exist or not.
