IS_ERR(phy) is true, if something went wrong getting a phy (probably
from dt).

and phy is NULL if dt didn't specify a phy. That's the semantic of
devm_phy_optional_get (which is identically to what
devm_gpiod_get_optional) does.

The relevant part is that for a function with "optinal" in it's name not
finding the respective resource isn't an error. So checking for NULL
isn't error handling but handling the 2nd valid case.
