fec: fix recursive locking of mii_lock
mii_discover_phy is only called by fec_enet_mii (via mip->mii_func). So
&fep->mii_lock is already held and mii_discover_phy must not call
mii_queue which locks &fep->mii_lock, too.
This was noticed by lockdep:
=============================================
[ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
2.6.31-rc8-00038-g37d0892 #109
---------------------------------------------
swapper/1 is trying to acquire lock:
(&fep->mii_lock){-.....}, at: [<c01569f8>] mii_queue+0x2c/0xcc
but task is already holding lock:
(&fep->mii_lock){-.....}, at: [<c0156328>] fec_enet_interrupt+0x78/0x460
other info that might help us debug this:
2 locks held by swapper/1:
#0: (rtnl_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<c0183534>] rtnl_lock+0x18/0x20
#1: (&fep->mii_lock){-.....}, at: [<c0156328>] fec_enet_interrupt+0x78/0x460
