phy: fix crash in fixed_phy_add()
Since e7f4dc35 ("mdio: Move allocation of interrupts into core"), platforms which call fixed_phy_add() before fixed_mdio_bus_init() is called (for example, because the platform code and the fixed_phy driver use the same initcall level) crash in fixed_phy_add() since the ->mii_bus is not allocated. Also since e7f4dc35, these interrupts are initalized to polling by default. The few (old) platforms which directly use fixed_phy_add() from their platform code all pass PHY_POLL for the irq argument, so we can keep these platforms not crashing by simply not attempting to set the irq if PHY_POLL is passed. Also, even if problems have not been reported on more modern platforms which used fixed_phy_register() from drivers' probe functions, we return -EPROBE_DEFER if the MDIO bus is not yet registered so that the probe is retried later.
