of: of_mdio: Add a whitelist of PHY compatibilities.
Some phy nodes list a compatible value indicating the PHY make/model. This is never used to match the device to the driver. However it does confuse the code to separate a PHY from a generic MDIO device like a switch. Generic MDIO devices must have a compatible value, PHYs can list clause 22 or 45, but nothing else. Issue a warning if we find a compatible value known on the whitelist, and say it is a PHY. Fixes: a9049e0c513c ("mdio: Add support for mdio drivers.")
