mdio_mux_init() use the parameter dev for two distinct thing:
1) Have a device for all devm_ functions
2) Get device_node from it
Since it is two distinct purpose, this patch add a parameter mdio_mux
that is linked to task 2.
This will also permit to register an of_node mdio-mux that lacks a direct
owning device.
For example a mdio-mux which is a subnode of a real device.

An integrated multiplexer uses same address space for
"muxed bus selection" and "generation of mdio transaction"
hence its good to register parent bus from mux driver.
Hence added a mechanism where mux driver could register a
parent bus and pass it down to framework via mdio_mux_init api.

This patch adds a somewhat generic framework for MDIO bus
multiplexers. It is modeled on the I2C multiplexer.
The multiplexer is needed if there are multiple PHYs with the same
address connected to the same MDIO bus adepter, or if there is
insufficient electrical drive capability for all the connected PHY
devices.
Conceptually it could look something like this:
------------------
| Control Signal |
--------+---------
|
--------------- --------+------
| MDIO MASTER |---| Multiplexer |
--------------- --+-------+----
| |
C C
h h
i i
l l
d d
| |
--------- A B ---------
| | | | | |
| PHY@1 +-------+ +---+ PHY@1 |
| | | | | |
--------- | | ---------
--------- | | ---------
| | | | | |
| PHY@2 +-------+ +---+ PHY@2 |
| | | |
--------- ---------
This framework configures the bus topology from device tree data. The
mechanics of switching the multiplexer is left to device specific
drivers.
The follow-on patch contains a multiplexer driven by GPIO lines.
