net: micrel: fix KS8851_MLL Kconfig
[ Upstream commit c3efcedd272aa6dd5929e20cf902a52ddaa1197a ]
KS8851_MLL selects MICREL_PHY, which depends on PTP_1588_CLOCK_OPTIONAL,
so make KS8851_MLL also depend on PTP_1588_CLOCK_OPTIONAL since
'select' does not follow any dependency chains.
Fixes kconfig warning and build errors:
