The net fixed phy driver does not require the creation of a platform
device. Originally, this approach was chosen for simplicity when the
driver was first implemented.

With the introduction of the lightweight faux device interface, we now
have a more appropriate alternative. Migrate the device to utilize the
faux bus, given that the platform device it previously created was not
a real one anyway. This will get rid of the fake platform device.

You were asked to split this up by subsystem. So why is this 8/8?
There are not 7 other patches for netdev.

Sorry for that. I admit this patch unlike other patches in the series is
not dependent on the macro introduced in 1/8. I should have posted this
independent of the series, my bad. I will do that. Thanks!
