Subject: [PATCH v1 net] net: phy: fix null dereference in phy_attach_direct
Commit bc66fa87d4fd ("net: phy: Add link between phy dev and mac dev")
introduced a link between net devices and phy devices. It fails to check
whether dev is NULL, leading to a NULL dereference error.
Fixes: bc66fa87d4fd ("net: phy: Add link between phy dev and mac dev")
