phy: fix device reference leaks
commit 17ae1c650c1ecf8dc8e16d54b0f68a345965f43f upstream. Make sure to drop the reference taken by bus_find_device_by_name() before returning from phy_connect() and phy_attach(). Note that both function still take a reference to the phy device through phy_attach_direct().
