Subject: [PATCH net] Revert "mdio_bus: Remove unneeded gpiod NULL check"

This reverts commit 95b80bf3db03c2bf572a357cf74b9a6aefef0a4a ("mdio_bus:
Remove unneeded gpiod NULL check"), this commit assumed that GPIOLIB
checks for NULL descriptors, so it's safe to drop them, but it is not
when CONFIG_GPIOLIB is disabled in the kernel. If we do call
gpiod_set_value_cansleep() on a GPIO descriptor we will issue warnings
coming from the inline stubs declared in include/linux/gpio/consumer.h.

Fixes: 95b80bf3db03 ("mdio_bus: Remove unneeded gpiod NULL check")
