[PATCH net-next 08/18] net: mvpp2: make the phy optional

SFP ports do not necessarily need to have an Ethernet PHY between the
SoC and the actual physical port. However, the driver currently makes
the "phy" property mandatory, contrary to what is stated in the Device
Tree binding.

To allow handling the PPv2 controller on those boards, this patch makes
the PHY optional, and aligns the PPv2 driver on its device tree
documentation.
