Ethernet controller in i.MX6*/i.MX7* series do not provide EEE support.
But this chips are used sometimes in combinations with SmartEEE capable
PHYs.
So, instead of aborting get/set_eee access on MACs without EEE support,
ask PHY if it is able to do the EEE job by using SmartEEE.

I see many places in the fec driver guarding against a NULL
ndev->phydev, and TBH I don't completely understand why.
I guess it's because ndev->phydev is populated at fec_enet_open() time.

But then again, if the netif_running() check is sufficient to imply
presence of ndev->phydev as you suggest, then why does fec_enet_ioctl()
have this?

	if (!netif_running(ndev))
		return -EINVAL;

	if (!phydev)
		return -ENODEV;

Asking because phy_init_eee(), phy_ethtool_set_eee() and
phy_ethtool_get_eee() don't support being called with a NULL phydev.
