[PATCH v2 net] net: phy: meson-gxl: use MMD access dummy stubs for GXL, internal PHY

Jerome provided the information that also the GXL internal PHY doesn't
support MMD register access and EEE. MMD reads return 0xffff, what
results in e.g. completely wrong ethtool --show-eee output.
Therefore use the MMD dummy stubs.

v2:
- Change Fixes tag to the actually offending commit. As 4.9 is EOL
  this fix will apply on all stable versions.

Fixes: d853d145ea3e ("net: phy: add an option to disable EEE advertisement")
