This is another one of those questionable commits. In this
case a bus tagged C45_FIRST refuses to create phys
where the phy id is invalid. In general this is probably a
good idea, but might cause problems. Another idea might be to
create an additional flag (MDIOBUS_STRICT_ID?) for this case.

Or we just ignore it and accept that the probe logic as it
stands potentially creates bogus phy devices, to avoid the
case where an actual phy exists but isn't responding correctly.
