What i think is better is to make fixed_phy_add() return -EPROBE_DEFER
if it is called before fixed_mdio_bus_init().

I don't see how this will work for platforms such as ar7 and bcm47xx
which call fixed_phy_add() from platform code.  There is no probe to
retry there so while the EPROBE_DEFER will certainly fix the crash it
will also leave the platforms without a phy.
