Subject: [PATCH net] net: ethernet: ti: am65-cpsw: Fix mdio cleanup in probe

In the am65_cpsw_nuss_probe() function's cleanup path, the call to
of_platform_device_destroy() for the common->mdio_dev device is invoked
unconditionally. It is possible that either the MDIO node is not present
in the device-tree, or the MDIO node is disabled in the device-tree. In
both these cases, the MDIO device is not created, resulting in a NULL
pointer dereference when the of_platform_device_destroy() function is
invoked on the common->mdio_dev device on the cleanup path.

Fix this by ensuring that the common->mdio_dev device exists, before
attempting to invoke of_platform_device_destroy().

Fixes: a45cfcc69a25 ("net: ethernet: ti: am65-cpsw-nuss: use of_platform_device_create() for mdio")
