Subject: [PATCH] ucc_geth: Fix three oopses in PHY {de,}initialization code

When there are no free snums, UCC ethernet should gracefully fail, but
currently it oopses this way:

  # ifconfig eth0 up
  fill_init_enet_entries: Can not get SNUM.
  ucc_geth_startup: Can not fill p_init_enet_param_shadow.
  eth0: Cannot configure net device, aborting.
  Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x00000190
  Faulting instruction address: 0xc0294c88
  Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]
  [...]
  NIP [c0294c88] mutex_lock+0x0/0x1c
  LR [c01b6be8] phy_stop+0x20/0x70
  Call Trace:
  [efb25da0] [efb2eb60] 0xefb2eb60 (unreliable)
  [efb25db0] [c01b2058] ucc_geth_stop+0x2c/0x8c

  [efb25df0] [c020eec0] dev_open+0xc0/0x118
  [...]

This is because the ucc_geth_stop() routine assumes that ugeth->phydev
is always initialized by the ucc_geth_open(), while it is not in case
of errors.

If we add a check to the ucc_geth_stop(), then another oops pops up:

  Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x00000004
  Faulting instruction address: 0xc01b46a4
  Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]
  [...]
  NIP [c01b46a4] adjust_link+0x20/0x1b4
  LR [c01b770c] phy_state_machine+0xdc/0x44c
  Call Trace:

  [ef83bf90] [c004c870] worker_thread+0x70/0xd0
  [ef83bfd0] [c00505fc] kthread+0x48/0x84
  [ef83bff0] [c000f464] kernel_thread+0x4c/0x68
  [...]

That one happens because ucc_geth_stop() does not call phy_disconnect()
and so phylib state machine is running without any idea that a MAC has
just died.

Also, when device tree specifies fixed-link, and CONFIG_FIXED_PHY
is disabled, we'll get this oops:

  0:01 not found
  eth2: Could not attach to PHY
  eth2: Cannot initialize PHY, aborting.
  Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x00000190
  Faulting instruction address: 0xc02967d0

  [ef82bff0] [c000f464] kernel_thread+0x4c/0x68
  [...]

And again, ucc_geth_stop() assumes that ugeth->phydev is there, while
it isn't.

This patch fixes all three oopses simply by rearranging some code:

- In ucc_geth_open(): move init_phy() call to the beginning, so
  that we only call ucc_geth_stop() with a PHY attached;
- Move phy_disconnect() call from ucc_geth_close() to
  ucc_geth_stop(), so that we'll always disconnect the PHY.
