[RFC PATCH] smsc911x: Ignore error return from device_get_phy_mode()

[Guenter Roeck]

Commit 62ee783bf1f8 ("smsc911x: Fix crash seen if neither ACPI nor OF is
configured or used") introduces an error check for the return value from
device_get_phy_mode() and bails out if there is an error. Unfortunately,
there are configurations where no phy is configured. Those configurations
now fail.

To fix the problem, assign a phy interface mode of PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_NA
if device_get_phy_mode() returns an error.

Check the return value from device_property_read_u32() to see if there
is a suitable firmware interface to read the data, and abort if not.
The function should return -ENXIO in that case; however, it returns
-ENODATA. Check for both.

Needs testing. RFC because I am not sure if the -ENODATA check is acceptable.
