fec: fix recursive locking of mii_lock



mii_discover_phy is only called by fec_enet_mii (via mip->mii_func).  So
&fep->mii_lock is already held and mii_discover_phy must not call
mii_queue which locks &fep->mii_lock, too.

This was noticed by lockdep:

	=============================================
	[ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
	2.6.31-rc8-00038-g37d0892 #109
	---------------------------------------------
	swapper/1 is trying to acquire lock:
	 (&fep->mii_lock){-.....}, at: [<c01569f8>] mii_queue+0x2c/0xcc

	but task is already holding lock:
	 (&fep->mii_lock){-.....}, at: [<c0156328>] fec_enet_interrupt+0x78/0x460

	other info that might help us debug this:
	2 locks held by swapper/1:
	 #0:  (rtnl_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<c0183534>] rtnl_lock+0x18/0x20
	 #1:  (&fep->mii_lock){-.....}, at: [<c0156328>] fec_enet_interrupt+0x78/0x460
