[PATCH net v2] net: dsa: fix phylink_start()/phylink_stop() calls

[Russell King]

Place phylink_start()/phylink_stop() inside dsa_port_enable() and
dsa_port_disable(), which ensures that we call phylink_stop() before
tearing down phylink - which is a documented requirement.  Failure
to do so can cause use-after-free bugs.

Applied and queued up for -stable, thanks Russell.

The patch applied with some fuzz but still is correct, so I wonder
if you generated this against net-next or a tree with other local
changes?

Thanks again.
