Subject: [PATCH 4.14 124/125] staging: octeon: repair "fixed-link" support

From: Alexander Sverdlin <alexander.sverdlin@...ia.com>

commit 179f5dc36b0a1aa31538d7d8823deb65c39847b3 upstream.

The PHYs must be registered once in device probe function, not in device
open callback because it's only possible to register them once.

Fixes: a25e278020bf ("staging: octeon: support fixed-link phys")
