[PATCH net v3 2/3] net: stmmac: check if MAC needs to attach to a PHY

[Michael Sit Wei Hong]

After the introduction of the fixed-link support, the MAC driver
no longer attempt to scan for a PHY to attach to. This causes the
non fixed-link setups to stop working.

Using the phylink_expects_phy() to check and determine if the MAC
should expect and attach a PHY.
