Nathan and Heiner reported issues that occur when phylib and phy drivers
built as modules expect the phy_link_topology to be initialized, due to
wrong use of IS_REACHABLE.

This small fixup series addresses that by moving the initialization code
into net/core/dev.c, but at the same time implementing lazy
initialization to only allocate the topology upon the first PHY
insertion.

This needed some refactoring, namely pass the netdevice itself as a
parameter for phy_link_topology helpers.

Thanks Heiner for the help on untangling this, and Nathan for the
report.
