Subject: [PATCH v2 net] net: lan966x: fix kernel oops on ioctl when I/F is down

ioctls handled by phy_mii_ioctl() will cause a kernel oops when the
interface is down. Fix it by making sure there is a PHY attached.

Fixes: 735fec995b21 ("net: lan966x: Implement SIOCSHWTSTAMP and SIOCGHWTSTAMP")
Signed-off-by: Michael Walle <michael@...le.cc>

changes since v1:
 - reword commit message
 - test for the presence of phydev instead of the interface state
 - move the test just before phy_mii_ioctl()
