[PATCH net-next] net: ethtool: phy: Clear the netdev context pointer for DUMP requests

[Maxime Chevallier]

The context info allows continuing DUMP requests, shall they fill the
netlink buffer. When performing unfiltered dump request, clear the dev
pointer in the context at the end of the dump, avoiding the release of
the netdevice. In the case of a filtered DUMP, the refcount for the
netdev was held when parsing the header, and is released in the .done()
callback.
