[RFC,net-next,v2,1/2] net: phy: phy_device Prevent nullptr exceptions on ISR
Commit Message
If phydev->irq is set unconditionally by MAC drivers, check
for valid interrupt handler or fall back to polling mode to prevent
nullptr exceptions.

It was exact the way described by Heiner Kallweit. The Kernel Oops

v2:
- Added the workaround to phy_attach_direct as discussed in first patch
submission.
TODO: Make phy_device->irq private and add access function that proves
availability of interrupt handler in phy driver.
