net: dsa: qca8k: remove leftover phy accessors

Browse source

This belated patch implements Andrew Lunn's request of
"remove the phy_read() and phy_write() functions."
<https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/comment/902734/>

While seemingly harmless, this causes the switch's user
port PHYs to get registered twice. This is because the
DSA subsystem will create a slave mdio-bus not knowing
that the qca8k_phy_(read|write) accessors operate on
the external mdio-bus. So the same "bus" gets effectively
duplicated.
