net:stmmac: Add check if mdiobus is registered in stmmac_mdio_unregister
This patch adds a basic check in stmmac_mdio_unregister to see if mdio
bus registeration for this driver was actually sucessfull or not.
Use case here is, if BSP considers using mdio-gpio bus along with stmmac
driver by passing mdio_bus_data as NULL in platform data.
Call to stmmac_mdio_register with mdio_bus_data as NULL returns 0, which
is a considered sucessfull call form stmmac. Then again when we unload
the driver we just call stmmac_mdio_unregister, this is were the actual
problem is stmmac-mdio code dont really know at this instance of calling
that stmmac_mdio_register was actually successful.
So Adding a check in stmmac_mdio_unregister is always safe.
Without this patch stmmac driver calls stmmac_mdio_register from
stmmac_release which Segfaults as mii bus was never registered at the
first point.
Originally the this bug was found when unloading an stmmac driver
instance which uses mdio-gpio for smi access.
