net: fix circular dependency in of_mdio code
Commit 86f6cf4127 (net: of_mdio: add of_mdiobus_link_phydev()) introduced a
circular dependency between libphy and of_mdio.

depmod: ERROR: <modroot>/kernel/drivers/net/phy/libphy.ko in
dependency cycle!
depmod: ERROR: <modroot>/kernel/drivers/of/of_mdio.ko in dependency cycle!

The problem is that of_mdio.c references &mdio_bus_type and libphy now
references of_mdiobus_link_phydev.

Fix this by not exporting of_mdiobus_link_phydev() from of_mdio.ko.
Make it a static function in mdio_bus.c instead.
