    ath79: use gpios for switch management in WZR-HP-G300NH variants
    
    The RTL8366S/RB switch node in DTS defines "mii-bus = <&mdio0>" to permit
    management via SMI but this has likely never worked, instead falling back
    to using GPIOs in the past:
    
         rtl8366s switch: cannot find mdio bus from bus handle (yet)
         rtl8366s switch: using GPIO pins 19 (SDA) and 20 (SCK)
         rtl8366s switch: RTL8366 ver. 1 chip found
    
    Recently, the rtl8366s and rtl8366_smi drivers were changed from built-in
    to loadable modules. This affected driver probing order and caused switch
    initialization (and network access) to fail:
    
         rtl8366s switch: using MDIO bus 'ag71xx_mdio'
         rtl8366s switch: unknown chip id (ffff)
         rtl8366s switch: chip detection failed, err=-19
    
    Force using GPIOs to manage the switch by dropping the "mii-bus" DTS
    definition, which works for both built-in and loadable switch drivers.
