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.

This patch makes my sh_eth driver fail to connect to PHY usinjg
of_phy_connect(). (The ravb driver fails too but for some other reason.)
