The spatch series converting legacy drivers from miiphy_register to mdio_register changed the return convention of the davinci_emac internal MDIO accessors, making the internal code relying on it misbehaving: no mdiodev get registered and U-Boot crashes when using net cmds in the context of the old legacy net API.
ATM davinci_emac_initialize and cpu_eth_init don't return a proper value in that case but fixing them would not avoid the crash.
This change is just a follow-up to the spatch pass, the MDIO accessors of the mdiodev introduced by the spatch pass retain their proper values.
