powerpc/fsl: fsl_soc: remove 'fixed-link' parsing code
Parsing and registration of fixed PHY devices was needed with the use of of_phy_connect_fixed_link() because this function was using the designated PHY address identifier (first cell of the property) as the address to bind the PHY on the emulated bus. Since commit 3be2a49e ("of: provide a binding for fixed link PHYs") a new pair of functions has been introduced which allows for dynamic address allocation of these fixed PHY devices, but also parses the old 'fixed-link' 5-digit property. Registration of fixed PHY early in platform code was needed because we could not issue a fixed MDIO bus re-scan within network drivers. The fixed PHYs had to be registered before the network drivers would call of_phy_connect_fixed_link(). All of these caveats are solved now, such that we can safely remove of_add_fixed_phys() now.
