Fix 'mask' calculation in phy_connect() for phy addr '0'. 'mask' is getting set to '0xffffffff' for phy addr '0' in phy_connect() whereas expected value is '0'.

Sadly, this breaks systems where a PHY is at address 0. I have such an STM32MP1 system with LAN8720 PHY and since this patch, I cannot use ethernet. Please revert.
It seems like a case that shouldn't have worked before. What about this board requires the mask to be all 'f's, other than specifying the wrong phy address? It seems that in your case the phy address is not actually 0 (or the computed mask would find it), but your board dts may be setting it to 0 as an "unknown" value, but the correct unknown value should be "-1". It seems the issue is with these boards.
