Vitaly Bordug a79d8e93d3 phy/fixed.c: rework to not duplicate PHY layer functionality
With that patch fixed.c now fully emulates MDIO bus, thus no need
to duplicate PHY layer functionality. That, in turn, drastically
simplifies the code, and drops down line count.

As an additional bonus, now there is no need to register MDIO bus
for each PHY, all emulated PHYs placed on the platform fixed MDIO bus.
There is also no more need to pre-allocate PHYs via .config option,
this is all now handled dynamically.

Adds the platform "fixed" MDIO Bus to cover the boards that use

Currently tested with mpc866ads and mpc8349e-mitx.

help
This module implements the MDIO bus protocol in software,
for use by low level drivers that export the ability to
drive the relevant pins.
If in doubt, say N.
