net: mdio: ensure the type of mdio devices match mdio drivers
On the MDIO bus, we have PHYLIB devices and drivers, and we have non- PHYLIB devices and drivers. PHYLIB devices are MDIO devices that are wrapped with a struct phy_device. Trying to bind a MDIO device with a PHYLIB driver results in out-of- bounds accesses as we attempt to access struct phy_device members. So, let's prevent this by ensuring that the type of the MDIO device (indicated by the MDIO_DEVICE_FLAG_PHY flag) matches the type of the MDIO driver (indicated by the MDIO_DEVICE_IS_PHY flag.)
