This file was originally cloned off of the MPC8641D-HPCN reference
platform, which actually had a PHY IRQ line connected.  However
this board does not.  The bogus entry was largely inert and went
undetected until commit 321beec5047af83db90c88114b7e664b156f49fe
("net: phy: Use interrupts when available in NOLINK state") was
added to the tree.

With the above commit, the board fails to NFS boot since it sits
waiting for a PHY IRQ event that of course never arrives.  Removing
the bogus entries from the DTS file fixes the issue.
Commit 321beec5047a ("net: phy: Use interrupts when available in NOLINK state")
went into 4.4-rc2, so this is a fix for 4.4 right?

cheers
