net: allow FEC driver to use fixed PHY support
At least one board using the FEC driver does not have a conventional
PHY attached to it, it is directly connected to a somewhat simple
ethernet switch (the board is the SnapGear/LITE, and the attached
4-port ethernet switch is a RealTek RTL8305). This switch does not
present the usual register interface of a PHY, it presents nothing.
So a PHY scan will find nothing - it finds ID's of 0 for each PHY
on the attached MII bus.
After the FEC driver was changed to use phylib for supporting PHYs
it no longer works on this particular board/switch setup.
Add code support to use a fixed phy if no PHY is found on the MII bus.
This is based on the way the cpmac.c driver solved this same problem.
