Now that timestamping is controlled through an NDO, we can simply
call phylink_mii_ioctl() to handle ioctls.

The only functional difference is that phylink_mii_ioctl() ->
phy_mii_ioctl() can handle SIOCSHWTSTAMP, but this no longer happens
as this ioctl is not longer dispatched to the ndo_eth_ioctl().
To double check - the discussion is orthogonal and this patch can be
applied as is?
