[U-Boot] [PATCH] net/phy/realtek: Disable interrupt on Realtek Ethernet PHY drivers

Some Realtek Ethernet PHYs, like RTL8211D(G/N) and RTL8211E(G), have interrupts enabled by default. If the interrupt is not treated later by the OS and the PHY's interrupt line is enabled and shared with other interrupts, the system will get an interrupt storm. This patch disables the interrupt for PHY devices that use one of the current Realtek Ethernet PHY drivers. Some of Realtek Ethernet PHYs, such as RTL8211B(L) have the interrupt masked. In this case, the functionality of the PHY should not be afected since this patch brings INER and INSR registers to their default values.
