net: pcs: xpcs: also ignore phy id if it's all ones

xpcs_get_id() searches multiple MMDs for a known PHY ID, starting with
MDIO_MMD_PCS (3). However not all integrators might have implemented
that MMD on their MDIO bus. For example, the NXP SJA1105 and SJA1110
switches only implement vendor-specific MMD 1 and 2.

When there is nothing on an MDIO bus at a certain address, traditionally
the bus returns 0xffff, which means that the bus remained in its default
pull-up state for the duration of the MDIO transaction. The 0xffff value
is widely used in drivers/net/phy/phy_device.c (see get_phy_c22_id for
example) to denote a missing device.

So it makes sense for the xpcs to ignore this value as well, and
continue its search, eventually finding the proper PHY ID in the
vendor-specific MMDs.
