[PATCH 3/4] net: mdio: teach dm_eth_phy_connect to connect to fixed PHY

From: Vladimir Oltean <vladimir.oltean at nxp.com>

It would be desirable for top-level callers of PHYLIB to deal with as
little complexity as possible, and when they call dm_eth_phy_connect,
they get a struct phy_device that "just works".

There is a phy_connect_fixed interception put in phy_connect, however
dm_eth_phy_connect will not reach there: if will search for a phy-handle
all by itself, and error out if there isn't one. So we can make callers
of dm_eth_phy_connect suffer by having them call:

	err = dm_eth_phy_connect();
	if (err)
		err = dm_eth_phy_connect_fixed();

or we can just add the logic in dm_eth_phy_connect() that searches for a
fixed-link before searching for a phy-handle.

In fact we already have an in-tree driver that can make use of this
refactoring: the Freescale TSEC driver.
