Russell King (Oracle) 86b5f2d8cd net: pcs: lynx: add lynx_pcs_create_mdiodev()
Add lynx_pcs_create_mdiodev() to simplify the creation of the mdio
device associated with lynx PCS. In order to allow lynx_pcs_destroy()
to clean this up, we need to arrange for lynx_pcs_create() to take a
refcount on the mdiodev, and lynx_pcs_destroy() to put it.

Adding the refcounting to lynx_pcs_create()..lynx_pcs_destroy() will
be transparent to existing users of these interfaces.
