  Provide phylink_expects_phy() to allow MAC drivers to check if it
is expecting a PHY to attach to. Since fixed-linked setups do not
need to attach to a PHY.

Provides a boolean value as to if the MAC should expect a PHY.
returns true if a PHY is expected.

This description could be clearer (for example, it isn't just about
fixed-link mode), but apart from that, it's good. I don't think that's
a reason to delay this any further, but please follow-up with a patch
to improve this description.
