Split out the locked and unlocked sections of phy_state_machine() into two separate functions which can be called inside the phydev lock and outside the phydev lock as appropriate, thus allowing us to combine the locked regions in the caller of phy_state_machine() with the locked region inside phy_state_machine(). This avoids unnecessarily dropping the phydev lock which may allow races to occur.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
