net: phy: add a shutdown procedure



In case of a board which uses a shared IRQ we can easily end up with an
IRQ storm after a forced reboot.

For example, a 'reboot -f' will trigger a call to the .shutdown()
callbacks of all devices. Because phylib does not implement that hook,
the PHY is not quiesced, thus it can very well leave its IRQ enabled.

At the next boot, if that IRQ line is found asserted by the first PHY
driver that uses it, but _before_ the driver that is _actually_ keeping
the shared IRQ asserted is probed, the IRQ is not going to be
acknowledged, thus it will keep being fired preventing the boot process
of the kernel to continue. This is even worse when the second PHY driver
is a module.

To fix this, implement the .shutdown() callback and disable the
interrupts if these are used.

Note that we are still susceptible to IRQ storms if the previous kernel
exited with a panic or if the bootloader left the shared IRQ active, but
there is absolutely nothing we can do about these cases.
