Subject: [PATCH net] net: dpaa2-mac: Get serdes only for backplane links

When commenting on what would become commit 085f1776fa03 ("net: dpaa2-mac:
add backplane link mode support"), Ioana Ciornei said [1]:

> ...DPMACs in TYPE_BACKPLANE can have both their PCS and SerDes managed
> by Linux (since the firmware is not touching these). That being said,
> DPMACs in TYPE_PHY (the type that is already supported in dpaa2-mac) can
> also have their PCS managed by Linux (no interraction from the
> firmware's part with the PCS, just the SerDes).

This implies that Linux only manages the SerDes when the link type is
backplane. From my testing, the link fails to come up when the link type is
phy, but does come up when it is backplane. Modify the condition in
dpaa2_mac_connect to reflect this, moving the existing conditions to more
appropriate places.

I tested this on an LS1088ARDB. I would appreciate if someone could
verify that this doesn't break anything for the LX2160A.
