    stmmac: Fix 'eth0: No PHY found' regression
   
    This patch manages the case when you have an Ethernet MAC with
    a "fixed link", and not connected to a normal MDIO-managed PHY device.
   
    The test of phy_bus_name was not helpful because it was never affected
    and replaced by the mdio test node.
