H A DKconfigd43e85b7 Tue Mar 28 05:15:41 CDT 2017 Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> ARM: orion5x: only call into phylib when available

Board code cannot call mdiobus_register_board_info() when phylib
or mdio_device is a loadable module:

arch/arm/plat-orion/common.o: In function `orion_ge00_switch_init':
:(.init.text+0x474): undefined reference to `mdiobus_register_board_info'

I had a number of ideas for how this could be solved, but after the MDIO
code got split out from PHYLIB it has gotten too hard, so I'm basically
giving up, and only call the mdiobus_register_board_info() function
if the MDIO layer is built-in to avoid the link error. This is similar
to how we handle PHY registration on other ARM platforms.
