[PATCH] netdev/phy: Make get_phy_id() static and quit EXPORTing it.

[PATCH] netdev/phy: Make get_phy_id() static and quit EXPORTing it.

[David Daney]

From: David Daney <david.daney@cavium.com>

This function is only referenced from within phy_device.c, so there is
no reason to export it.  In fact, we can make it static.

I did a bit of data mining to remind myself why it was exported.  Back
in a01b3d766c (v2.6.26) gianfar_mii was using it.  That then got merged
into fsl_pq_mdio.c and gianfar_mii was deleted.  Then finally in commit
28d8ea2d568 (v3.2) the one instance of code that was using it got
removed.  So, I think this should be OK (but for net-next, though).

Applied.
