net: phy: smsc: energy saving does not work without interrupts

We discovered link detection failures using this PHY with the Freescale FEC
which does not have interrupt support yet. Disabling the energy saving mode
makes all go well. It should be possible to make this mode work without
interrupts by adding some code dealing with the ENERGYON flag. Since adding
interrupt support to the FEC driver seems to be the better solution for us, I
want to at least make sure the PHY works reliably always. So, disable energy
saving if there is no interrupt support.

Giuseppe: Did you test with interrupts? Do you agree?

If Giuseppe is fine with the patch, this should probably be tagged for stable.

Gnarg, that should probably be:

+	if (phydev->irq != PHY_POLL) ...

since interrupts maybe not enabled at this point? Will resend, but will
wait some more for comments.
