net: mdio: unexport __init-annotated mdio_bus_init()

[ Upstream commit 35b42dce619701f1300fb8498dae82c9bb1f0263 ]

EXPORT_SYMBOL and __init is a bad combination because the .init.text
section is freed up after the initialization. Hence, modules cannot
use symbols annotated __init. The access to a freed symbol may end up
with kernel panic.

modpost used to detect it, but it has been broken for a decade.

Recently, I fixed modpost so it started to warn it again, then this
showed up in linux-next builds.

There are two ways to fix it:

  - Remove __init
  - Remove EXPORT_SYMBOL

I chose the latter for this case because the only in-tree call-site,
drivers/net/phy/phy_device.c is never compiled as modular.
(CONFIG_PHYLIB is boolean)
