From: David Rivshin <drivs...@allworx.com>

If an emac node has a phy-handle property that points to something
which is not a phy, then a segmentation fault will occur when the
interface is brought up. This is because while phy_connect() will
return ERR_PTR() on failure, of_phy_connect() will return NULL.
The common error check uses IS_ERR(), and so missed when
of_phy_connect() fails. The NULL pointer is then dereferenced.

Also, the common error message referenced slave->data->phy_id,
which would be empty in the case of phy-handle. Instead, use the
name of the device_node as a useful identifier. And in the phy_id
case add the error code for completeness.

Fixes: 9e42f715264f ("drivers: net: cpsw: add phy-handle parsing")

I would suggest this for -stable. It should apply cleanly as far back
as 4.5, although there is a trivial conflict in 4.4. I can produce a
separate patch against linux-4.4.y if preferred.

Changes since v2:
- new patch, although fixing part of previous patch 2 [1]

Changes since v1 [2]:
- Rebased (no conflicts)
- Added Tested-by from Nicolas Chauvet
- Added Acked-by from Rob Herring for the binding change
