Subject: [PATCH 1/6] phy: core: Fix API devm_phy_put() can not release the
 phy

From: Zijun Hu <quic_zijuhu@...cinc.com>

For devm_phy_put(), its comment says it needs to invoke phy_put() to
release the phy, but it does not do that actually, so it can not fully
undo what the API devm_phy_get() does, that is wrong, fixed by using
devres_release() instead of devres_destroy() within the API.

BTW, the API is directly used by below source files in error handling
path, so also fix relevant issue within these source files:
drivers/pci/controller/cadence/pcie-cadence.c
drivers/net/ethernet/ti/am65-cpsw-nuss.c

Fixes: ff764963479a ("drivers: phy: add generic PHY framework")
