r6040: Fix kmemleak in probe and remove

[ Upstream commit 7e43039a49c2da45edc1d9d7c9ede4003ab45a5f ]

There is a memory leaks reported by kmemleak:

  unreferenced object 0xffff888116111000 (size 2048):
    comm "modprobe", pid 817, jiffies 4294759745 (age 76.502s)
    hex dump (first 32 bytes):

      08 10 11 16 81 88 ff ff 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  ................
    backtrace:

      [<ffffffffa01f5d24>] r6040_init_one+0x714/0xd2c [r6040]
      ...

The problem occurs in probe process as follows:
  r6040_init_one:
    mdiobus_register
      mdiobus_scan    <- alloc and register phy_device,
                         the reference count of phy_device is 3
    r6040_mii_probe
      phy_connect     <- connect to the first phy_device,
                         so the reference count of the first
                         phy_device is 4, others are 3
    register_netdev   <- fault inject succeeded, goto error handling path

    // error handling path
    err_out_mdio_unregister:
      mdiobus_unregister(lp->mii_bus);
    err_out_mdio:
      mdiobus_free(lp->mii_bus);    <- the reference count of the first
                                       phy_device is 1, it is not released
                                       and other phy_devices are released
  // similarly, the remove process also has the same problem

The root cause is traced to the phy_device is not disconnected when
removes one r6040 device in r6040_remove_one() or on error handling path
after r6040_mii probed successfully. In r6040_mii_probe(), a net ethernet
device is connected to the first PHY device of mii_bus, in order to
notify the connected driver when the link status changes, which is the
default behavior of the PHY infrastructure to handle everything.
Therefore the phy_device should be disconnected when removes one r6040
device or on error handling path.

Fix it by adding phy_disconnect() when removes one r6040 device or on
error handling path after r6040_mii probed successfully.
