net: mv643xx_eth: use phy_disconnect instead of phy_detach
Using a separated mdio bus driver with mvmdio, phy_detach on network device removal will not stop the phy and finally lead to NULL pointer dereference in mvmdio due to non-existent network device. Use phy_disconnect instead to properly stop phy device from accessing network device prior removal of the network device.
