TI's cpsw driver handles both OF and non-OF case for phy
connect. Unfortunately of_phy_connect() returns NULL on
error while phy_connect() returns ERR_PTR().
To handle this, cpsw_slave_open() overrides the return value
from phy_connect() to make it NULL or error.
This leaves a small window, where cpsw_adjust_link() may be
invoked for a slave while slave->phy pointer is temporarily
set to -ENODEV (or some other error) before it is finally set
to NULL.
_cpsw_adjust_link() only handles the NULL case, and an oops
results when ERR_PTR() is seen by it.
Note that cpsw_adjust_link() checks PHY status for each
slave whenever it is invoked. It can so happen that even
though phy_connect() for a given slave returns error,
_cpsw_adjust_link() is still called for that slave because
the link status of another slave changed.
Fix this by using a temporary pointer to store return value
of {of_}phy_connect() and do a one-time write to slave->phy.
