drivers: net: cpsw: fix segfault in case of bad phy-handle
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1798587 commit d733f754 upstream. If an emac node has a phy-handle property that points to something which is not a phy, then a segmentation fault will occur when the interface is brought up. This is because while phy_connect() will return ERR_PTR() on failure, of_phy_connect() will return NULL. The common error check uses IS_ERR(), and so missed when of_phy_connect() fails. The NULL pointer is then dereferenced. Also, the common error message referenced slave->data->phy_id, which would be empty in the case of phy-handle. Instead, use the name of the device_node as a useful identifier. And in the phy_id case add the error code for completeness.
