Grygorii Strashko bfe7244257 net: phy: micrel: fix crash when statistic requested for KSZ9031 phy
Now the command:
	ethtool --phy-statistics eth0
will cause system crash with meassage "Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer
dereference at virtual address 00000010" from:

 (kszphy_get_stats) from [<c069f1d8>] (ethtool_get_phy_stats+0xd8/0x210)
 (ethtool_get_phy_stats) from [<c06a0738>] (dev_ethtool+0x5b8/0x228c)
 (dev_ethtool) from [<c06b5484>] (dev_ioctl+0x3fc/0x964)
 (dev_ioctl) from [<c0679f7c>] (sock_ioctl+0x170/0x2c0)
 (sock_ioctl) from [<c02419d4>] (do_vfs_ioctl+0xa8/0x95c)
 (do_vfs_ioctl) from [<c02422c4>] (SyS_ioctl+0x3c/0x64)
 (SyS_ioctl) from [<c0107d60>] (ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x44)

The reason: phy_driver structure for KSZ9031 phy has no .probe() callback
defined. As result, struct phy_device *phydev->priv pointer will not be
initializes (null).
This issue will affect also following phys:
 KSZ8795, KSZ886X, KSZ8873MLL, KSZ9031, KSZ9021, KSZ8061, KS8737

Fix it by:
- adding .probe() = kszphy_probe() callback to KSZ9031, KSZ9021
phys. The kszphy_probe() can be re-used as it doesn't do any phy specific
settings.
- removing statistic callbacks from other phys (KSZ8795, KSZ886X,
KSZ8873MLL, KSZ8061, KS8737) as they doesn't have corresponding
statistic counters.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
