net: macb: fix NULL pointer dereference on unbind with fixed-link

When the device tree describes a fixed-link and has no "mdio" child
node, macb_mii_init() returns early without allocating the MDIO bus,
leaving bp->mii_bus as NULL.

Two cleanup paths then dereference this NULL bus:

1. On driver unbind, macb_remove() unconditionally calls
   mdiobus_unregister(bp->mii_bus), which oopses:

  Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000000004a8
  pc : mdiobus_unregister+0x14/0xa4
  lr : macb_remove+0x38/0xa4
  Call trace:
   mdiobus_unregister+0x14/0xa4 (P)
   macb_remove+0x38/0xa4
   platform_remove+0x20/0x30
   device_release_driver_internal+0x1c8/0x224
   unbind_store+0xb4/0xbc

2. On the probe error path in macb_probe(), reached when
   macb_mii_init() has succeeded but a subsequent step fails, the
   err_out_unregister_mdio label runs the same unconditional cleanup.

mdiobus_unregister() and mdiobus_free() do not guard against a NULL
bus, so guard the calls in both macb_remove() and the probe error
path.
