[PATCH net-next] net: stmmac: Call xpcs_config_eee_mult_fact() only when xpcs is present

Some dwmac variants such as dwmac_socfpga don't use xpcs but lynx_pcs.
Don't call xpcs_config_eee_mult_fact() in this case, as this causes a
crash at init :
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000039 when write
[...]
Call trace:
