net: dsa: handle non-existing PHYs on switch internal bus
In case there is no PHY at the designated address on the internal switch, we would basically de-reference a null pointer here: dsa_slave_phy_setup(...) { p->phy = ds->slave_mii_bus->phy_map[p->port]; phy_connect_direct(slave_dev, p->phy, dsa_slave_adjust_link, ^------ This can be triggered when the platform configuration (platform_data or Device Tree) indicates there should be a PHY device at this address, but the HW is non-responsive, such that we cannot attach a PHY device at this specific location. Fix this by checking the return value prior to calling phy_connect_direct().
