stmmac: do not poll phy handler when attach a switch
This patch avoids to call the stmmac_adjust_link when the driver is connected to a switch by using the FIXED_PHY support. Prior this patch the phydev->irq was set as PHY_POLL so periodically the phy handler was invoked spending useless time because the link cannot actually change. Note that the stmmac_adjust_link will be called just one time and this guarantees that the ST glue logic will be setup according to the mode and speed fixed.
