[PATCH] net: mdio: thunder: Do not unregister buses that have not been registered

From: Christophe JAILLET <hidden>

In the probe, if 'of_mdiobus_register()' fails, 'nexus->buses[i]' will
still have a non-NULL value.
So in the remove function, we will try to unregister a bus that has not
been registered.

In order to avoid that NULLify 'nexus->buses[i]'.
'oct_mdio_writeq(0,...)' must also be called here.

Calling 'devm_mdiobus_free()' would also be cleaner, IMHO.
I've not added it because:
   - it should be fine, even without it
   - I'm not sure how to use it

The best I could think-of (not even compile tested) is:
   devm_mdiobus_free(&pdev->dev, container_of(mii_bus, struct mdiobus_devres, mii));
which is not very nice looking.
(unless I missed something obvious!)

If I'm correct, just passing 'mii_bus' to have something that look logical
would require changing 'devm_mdiobus_alloc_size()' and
'devm_mdiobus_free()'.
