dpaa2-eth: mark DPNIs without a DPMAC as virtual devlink ports
A DPNI whose endpoint is not a DPMAC has no physical connector: it
may have no endpoint at all, or be connected to another DPNI or to a
DPSW port. Until now, such a DPNI was still registered as a physical
devlink port with number 0, so userspace saw a physical port that does
not exist.
Register these DPNIs as virtual devlink ports instead. A virtual port
has no phys_port_name, so only the DPNIs that serve a DPMAC at probe
time report one, "p<dpmac id>", and those names do not collide.
