CI driver is getting re-probed just fine if PHY's driver module is
loaded manually after loading the CI's module. This patch removes this
necessity to manually load PHY's module.

This is just a minor convenience change that brings the CI's driver
loading behaviour on par with the behaviour of loading Tegra's EHCI
driver module.
