miiphy: define mii_devs with LIST_HEAD()

When enabling net console and console multiplexing, a boot crash was
observed using mtk_eth driver with stdin/stdout set to "serial,nc"
in persistent environment:

The cause is that "serial,nc" forced the console subsystem to
initialize the ethernet driver before ethernet subsystem
initialization (console_init_r() is called before initr_net()).

During the mtk_eth driver initialization, mdio_register() will be
called, and miiphy_get_dev_by_name() will then be called.

The miiphy_get_dev_by_name() will check the list "mii_devs" to see
if the passed device name exists. However the mii_devs is defined
without initialization:
> static struct list_head mii_devs;
and the actual initialization is done in the following chain:
initr_net -> eth_initialize -> eth_common_init -> miiphy_init
Since initr_net() hasn't be called, iterating over the mii_devs
will access to physical address 0 (mii_devs.next == NULL) and will
cause the crash.

The fix is to define mii_devs using:
> static LIST_HEAD(mii_devs);

As the "current_mii" is defined as a static variable, it will
always be NULL in board_r stage and initializing it will NULL is
unnecessary. So the entire miiphy_init() can be remove.
