In case we need to divert reads/writes using the slave MII bus, we may have
already fetched a valid PHY interface property from Device Tree, and that
mode is used by the PHY driver to make configuration decisions.

If we could not fetch the "phy-mode" property, we will assign p->phy_interface
to PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_NA, such that we can actually check for that condition as
to whether or not we should override the interface value.

Hi Guenter,

Could you verify this does not break what you were trying to fix with your 
change?
I am fairly confident this will not because for "PHYs" built-into the switch 
port
we will not be able to fetch a "phy-mode" property from DT, so we will use
PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_NA, but here, we will re-assign them to 
PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_GMII
as before.

Thanks!
