The common clock framework considers NULL a valid clock
reference. This makes handling optional clocks simple, in that if the
optional clock is not available, a NULL reference can be used in the
place of a real clock, simplifying the clock consumer.
Extend this concept to the phy consumer API. A NULL can be passed to
the release calls, the phy_init() and phy_exit() calls, and
phy_power_on() and phy_power_off() and a NOP is performed.

release function is invoked on the the devres data and devres data is freed.
+It should be noted that NULL is a valid phy reference. All phy
+consumer calls on the NULL phy become NOPs. That is the release calls,
+the phy_init() and phy_exit() calls, and phy_power_on() and
+phy_power_off() calls are all NOP when applied to a NULL phy. The NULL
+phy is useful in devices for handling optional phy devices.

5. Releasing a reference to the PHY
When the controller no longer needs the PHY, it has to release the reference
