Subject: [PATCH] net: phy: shift phy_init_hw after device_add during phy device registration

Now the call of phy_init_hw() in phy_device_register() is converted to
be just a NOP, because phy_init_hw() is called before PHY devices probing
and phydev->drv == NULL at this moment.

phy_device_register()
 |- phy_init_hw() -> NOP
 |- device_add()
    |- phy_probe() -> may be if driver is ready
       |- phydev->drv = <&phy_driver>

Hence, shift call of phy_init_hw() after device_add() and in such way
increase possibility of its execution.

This patch is RFC because:
- this patch will change PHY's callbacks call order: .config_init() will
be called after .probe()
- i'm not sure that phy_init_hw() need to be called from phy_device_register() and
maybe it can be moved in other place, like phy_probe()
