net: phy: phy driver features are mandatory

camelia-groza-NXP · davem330 · commit 3e64cf7a435e · 2019-01-19T10:03:08.000-08:00
Since phy driver features became a link_mode bitmap, phy drivers that don't have a list of features configured will cause the kernel to crash when probed. Prevent the phy driver from registering if the features field is missing.
