Subject: [PATCH net] net: stmmac: fix invalid call to mdiobus_get_phy()

In a number of cases the driver assigns a default value of -1 to
priv->plat->phy_addr. This may result in calling mdiobus_get_phy()
with addr parameter being -1. Therefore check for this scenario and
bail out before calling mdiobus_get_phy().

Fixes: 42e87024f727 ("net: stmmac: Fix case when PHY handle is not present")
