mdio_bus: Fix MDIO bus scanning in __mdiobus_register()
Since commit b74766a0a0
("phylib: don't return NULL
from get_phy_device()") in linux-next, phy_get_device() will return
ERR_PTR(-ENODEV) instead of NULL if the PHY device ID is all ones.
This causes problem with stmmac driver and likely some other drivers
which call mdiobus_register(). I triggered this bug on SoCFPGA MCVEVK
board with linux-next 20160427 and 20160428. In case of the stmmac, if
there is no PHY node specified in the DT for the stmmac block, the stmmac
driver ( drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/stmmac_mdio.c function
stmmac_mdio_register() ) will call mdiobus_register() , which will
register the MDIO bus and probe for the PHY.
The mdiobus_register() resp. __mdiobus_register() iterates over all of
the addresses on the MDIO bus and calls mdiobus_scan() for each of them,
which invokes get_phy_device(). Before the aforementioned patch, the
mdiobus_scan() would return NULL if no PHY was found on a given address
and mdiobus_register() would continue and try the next PHY address. Now,
mdiobus_scan() returns ERR_PTR(-ENODEV), which is caught by the
'if (IS_ERR(phydev))' condition and the loop exits immediately if the
PHY address does not contain PHY.
Repair this by explicitly checking for the ERR_PTR(-ENODEV) and if this
error comes around, continue with the next PHY address.
