This should probably check for all errors except "not present"
rather than checking for -EPROBE_DEFER. We want to abort the
probe function for deferred probe as well as the case where we
a PHY was listed but isn't working properly.

Right. I think we should set hpriv->phy to NULL if it's not there and
then call the functions only if it's actually present but bail out on
an error.
