Subject: [PATCH RFC 3/6] net: phy: Threaded interrupts allow some simplification

The PHY interrupts are now handled in a threaded interrupt handler,
which can sleep. The work queue is no longer needed, phy_change() can
be called directly. Additionally, none of the callers of
phy_mac_interrupt() did so in interrupt context, so fully remove the
work queue, and document that phy_mac_interrupt() should not be called
in interrupt context.
