[net,v3,0/3] Fix PHY handle no longer parsing

Message

After the fixed link support was introduced, it is observed that PHY
no longer attach to the MAC properly. So we introduce a helper
function to determine if the MAC should expect to connect to a PHY
and proceed accordingly.

Michael Sit Wei Hong (3):
  net: phylink: add phylink_expects_phy() method
  net: stmmac: check if MAC needs to attach to a PHY
  net: stmmac: remove redundant fixup to support fixed-link mode

v2: Initialize fwnode before using the variable
v3: Introduced phylink_expects_phy() method as suggested by Russell King
    remove xpcs_an_inband fixup instead of moving the fixed-link check
    as suggested by Andrew Lunn
