[PATCH 2.6.29] ucc_geth: Fix oops when using fixed-link support

commit b1c4a9dddf09fe99b8f88252718ac5b357363dc4 ("ucc_geth: Change
uec phy id to the same format as gianfar's") introduced a regression
in the ucc_geth driver that causes this oops when fixed-link is used:

Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x00000000
Faulting instruction address: 0xc0151270
Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]

This patch fixes the issue by removing offending (and somewhat
duplicate) code from init_phy() routine, and changes _probe()
function to use uec_mdio_bus_name().

Also, since we fully construct phy_bus_id in the _probe() routine,
we no longer need ->phy_address and ->mdio_bus fields in
ucc_geth_info structure.

I wish the patch would be a bit shorter, but it seems like the only
way to fix the issue in a sane way. Luckily, the patch has been
tested with real PHYs and fixed-link, so no further regressions
expected.

Yeah, good catch.

Thanks!

I found a QE board to test this patch, so now we have real PHY
and fixed-links known to work.
