net: bcmgenet: enable automatic phy discovery
The unimac mdio driver falls back to scanning the entire bus if its given an appropriate mask. In ACPI mode we expect that the system is well behaved and conforms to recent versions of the specification. We then utilize phy_find_first(), and phy_connect_direct() to find and attach to the discovered phy during net_device open. While its apparently possible to build a genet based device with multiple phys on a single mdio bus, this works for current machines. Further, this driver makes a number of assumptions about the platform device, mac, mdio and phy all being 1:1. Lastly, It also avoids having to create references across the ACPI namespace hierarchy.
