gianfar generic PHY assumptions.

Hi.

This patch lets gianfar work on 83xx (or 85xx??) boards that have Generic PHYs on them that do _NOT_ happen to have an IRQ line wired to external_15.  Surely reasonable that if we can't ID the PHY that its probably not irq-wired the Freescale-ADS "way"...

It was critical for us; perhaps usefull for others.

The way PHYs are handle in 2.6.15 is completely different and the patch 
is not valid against the current tree.
