Subject: [PATCH 5.10 06/97] igc: Remove phy->type checking

From: Sasha Neftin <sasha.neftin@...el.com>

commit 47bca7de6a4fb8dcb564c7ca14d885c91ed19e03 upstream.

i225 devices have only one phy->type: copper. There is no point checking
phy->type during the igc_has_link method from the watchdog that
invoked every 2 seconds.
This patch comes to clean up these pointless checkings.
