    net: stmmac: check if MAC needs to attach to a PHY
    
    [ Upstream commit fe2cfbc9680356a3d9f8adde8a38e715831e32f5 ]
    
    After the introduction of the fixed-link support, the MAC driver
    no longer attempt to scan for a PHY to attach to. This causes the
    non fixed-link setups to stop working.
    
    Using the phylink_expects_phy() to check and determine if the MAC
    should expect and attach a PHY.
