If phydev->irq is set unconditionally by MAC drivers, check
for valid interrupt handler or fall back to polling mode to prevent
nullptr exceptions.

Hi Andre

A few more process things...

Please don't post a new version within 24 hours. Reviews need time to
review, and you could miss comments made on older versions of the
patches.

For a multi part patch set, its normal to include a clover
letter. When using git format-patch add --cover-letter and than edit
patch 0000-*.patch to describe the big picture of what the patchset
does. The text will be used for the merge commit message.

Please drop the phydev_warn(). Interrupt handling has always been
optional, and we have always silently dropped back to polling if
interrupts are not supported.

The comment wording is also not great. The MAC driver is not supposed
to have any idea what the PHY driver is. It just uses the phylib API,
which is PHY driver independent. So the MAC driver cannot tell if the
PHY driver supports interrupts or not.

I don't think a comment is needed. The code is pretty readable as is.
