[PATCH net v9 4/4] net: phy: restore the interrupt when the generic bind cycle fails

[Aleksei Sviridkin <f@lex.la>]

phy_attach_direct() binds the generic driver by hand, and the probe it
calls is phy_probe(), which replaces phydev->irq with PHY_POLL before
either of the points it can fail at. That failure unwinds on a label of
its own, which does not go through phy_detach(), so the substitution
outlives a bind cycle that never completed and a later attach finds a
PHY that can only be polled. Found while placing the restore of the
previous patch, as the other exit of the same bind cycle.

Take the number back on that label as well, before it clears d->driver.
That store is what reopens the device to the driver core: until it runs,
a driver registering on another CPU is turned away with -EBUSY and
phy_probe() cannot be the second writer of this field.

Notes:
    Both points the hand-bind can fail at are reachable. phy_probe() reaches
    genphy_read_abilities() through genphy_driver's .get_features, and that
    returns the error from phy_read(phydev, MII_BMSR); device_bind_driver()
    returns whatever driver_sysfs_add() got from sysfs_create_link().
    
    A failed genphy bind leaves the device with no driver bound at all, so the
    next driver to arrive binds directly and never goes through phy_detach().
    That is why patch 3 cannot cover this path, and why the Fixes: tag here is
    6d9f66ac7fec rather than the one patch 3 carries. That commit did not
    introduce the lost number - the substitution is far older - it created this
    second exit from the bind cycle, splitting the failure off the label that
    calls phy_detach(). Before it, patch 3 alone would have covered this, so
    that is where the backport range for this one starts.
    
    Exercised on the board described in patch 3, with a debug-only module
    parameter that fails the hand-bound generic probe once for one MDIO
    address. The connect then ends in -EIO rather than the -EINVAL of the
    validation path, so the unwind takes the label this patch touches.
    phydev->irq afterwards reads -1 with patch 3 alone and 15 with this one.
    
    One difference between the injector and a real failure, since it does not
    affect what was measured but should not be implied away: a genuine error
    inside phy_probe() leaves through its out: label, which re-asserts the PHY
    reset before returning, while the injector returns earlier than that.
    Neither path touches phydev->irq.
