[linux-yocto] [PATCH kernel 1/2] net: phy: Add general dummy stubs for MMD register access

From: Kevin Hao <haokexin at gmail.com>

For some phy devices, even though they don't support the MMD extended
register access, it does have some side effect if we are trying to
read/write the MMD registers via indirect method. So introduce general
dummy stubs for MMD register access which these devices can use to avoid
such side effect.

Fixes: b6b5e8a69118 ("gianfar: Disable EEE autoneg by default")
