Subject: [PATCH] phylib: Fix oops in suspend/resume paths

Suspend/resume routines check for phydrv != NULL, but that is
wrong because "phydrv" comes from container_of(drv). If drv is NULL,
then container_of(drv) will return non-NULL result, and the checks
won't work.

The Freescale TBI PHYs are driver-less, so "drv" is NULL, and that
leads to the following oops:

Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0xffffffe4
Faulting instruction address: 0xc0215554
Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]

This patch fixes the issue, plus removes unneeded parentheses
and fixes indentation level in mdio_bus_suspend().
