Subject: [PATCH net v3] r8169: Avoid duplicate sysfs entry creation error

From: Sayanta Pattanayak <sayanta.pattanayak@....com>

When registering the MDIO bus for a r8169 device, we use the PCI
bus/device specifier as a (seemingly) unique device identifier.
However the very same BDF number can be used on another PCI segment,
which makes the driver fail probing:

[ 27.544136] r8169 0002:07:00.0: enabling device (0000 -> 0003)
[ 27.559734] sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/class/mdio_bus/r8169-700'
....
[ 27.684858] libphy: mii_bus r8169-700 failed to register
[ 27.695602] r8169: probe of 0002:07:00.0 failed with error -22

Add the segment number to the device name to make it more unique.

This fixes operation on ARM N1SDP boards, with two boards connected
together to form an SMP system, and all on-board devices showing up
twice, just on different PCI segments. A similar issue would occur on
large systems with many PCI slots and multiple RTL8169 NICs.

Compile-tested on ARM, arm64, ppc64, sparc64, mips64, hppa, x86-64,
i386. Tested on an AMD system with an on-board RTL8111 chip.

Changes v2 ... v3:
- Resent with Fixes tag and proper net: annotation

Changes v1 ... v2:
- use pci_domain_nr() wrapper to fix compilation on various arches
