Implement a managed variant of of_mdiobus_register(). We need to make
mdio_devres into its own module because otherwise we'd hit circular
sumbol dependencies between phylib and of_mdio.

We currently have two managed helpers for mdiobus - devm_mdiobus_alloc()
and devm_mdiobus_register(). The idea behind devres is that the release
callback releases whatever resource the devm function allocates. In the
mdiobus case however there's no devres associated with the device by
devm_mdiobus_register(). Instead the release callback for
devm_mdiobus_alloc(): _devm_mdiobus_free() unregisters the device if
it is marked as managed.
This all seems wrong. The managed structure shouldn't need to know or
care about whether it's managed or not - and this is the case now for
struct mii_bus. The devres wrapper should be opaque to the managed
resource.
This changeset makes devm_mdiobus_alloc() and devm_mdiobus_register()
conform to common devres standards: devm_mdiobus_alloc() allocates a
devres structure and registers a callback that will call mdiobus_free().
__devm_mdiobus_register() allocated another devres and registers a
callback that will unregister the bus.

This function is not documented. Add a short kerneldoc description.

Functions should only be static inline if they're very short. This
devres helper is already over 10 lines and it will grow soon as we'll
be improving upon its approach. Pull it into mdio_devres.c.
