Subject: [PATCH 2/2] smsc911x: Remove dev==NULL check.

The dev==NULL check in smsc911x_probe_config is useless
and isn't providing any additional protection. If a fwnode
doesn't exist then an appropriate error should be returned
by device_get_phy_mode() covering the original case
of a missing of/fwnode.
