Subject: [PATCH 5.5 06/46] net: macb: Fix handling of fixed-link node

From: Codrin Ciubotariu <codrin.ciubotariu@...rochip.com>

[ Upstream commit 79540d133ed6f65a37dacb54b7a704cc8a24c52d ]

fixed-link nodes are treated as PHY nodes by of_mdiobus_child_is_phy().
We must check if the interface is a fixed-link before looking up for PHY
nodes.

Fixes: 7897b071ac3b ("net: macb: convert to phylink")
