Subject: [PATCH net-next] net: phylink: propagate phy_attach_direct() return
 code

of_phy_attach() hides the return value of phy_attach_direct(), forcing
us to return a "generic" ENODEV error code that is indistinguishable
from the lack-of-phy-property case.

Switch to using of_phy_find_device() to find the PHY device, and then
propagating any phy_attach_direct() error back to the caller.
