net: phy: fix null-ptr-deref while probe() failed

[ Upstream commit 369eb2c9f1f72adbe91e0ea8efb130f0a2ba11a6 ]

I got a null-ptr-deref report as following when doing fault injection test:

BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000058
Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN PTI
CPU: 1 PID: 253 Comm: 507-spi-dm9051 Tainted: G    B            N 6.1.0-rc3+

//probe path:
phy_device_register()
  device_add()

phy_connect
  phy_attach_direct() //set device driver
    probe() //it's failed, driver is not bound
    device_bind_driver() // probe failed, it's not called

//remove path:
phy_device_remove()
  device_del()
    device_release_driver_internal()
      __device_release_driver() //dev->drv is not NULL
        klist_remove() <- knode_driver is not added yet, cause null-ptr-deref

In phy_attach_direct(), after setting the 'dev->driver', probe() fails,
device_bind_driver() is not called, so the knode_driver->n_klist is not
set, then it causes null-ptr-deref in __device_release_driver() while
deleting device. Fix this by setting dev->driver to NULL in the error
path in phy_attach_direct().
