phylib: Make PHYs children of their MDIO bus, not the bus' parent.
commit 18ee49ddb0d2 ("phylib: rename mii_bus::dev to mii_bus::parent") changed the parent of PHY devices from the bus to the bus parent. Then, commit 4dea547fef1b ("phylib: rework to prepare for OF registration of PHYs") moved the code into phy_device.c At this point, it is somewhat unclear why the change was seen as necessary. But, when we look at the device model tree in /sys/devices, it is clearly incorrect. The PHYs should be children of their MDIO bus. Change the PHY's parent device to be the MDIO bus device.
