net: ethernet: aeroflex: move setting of netops to fix crash

Browse source

greth_of_probe() calls greth_mdio_init(), which connects the PHY,
before dev->netdev_ops is assigned. phy_attach_direct() ->
phy_link_topo_add_phy() reads dev->netdev_ops through
netdev_need_ops_lock() since the commit in question, so probing crashes
with a NULL pointer dereference when CONFIG_NET_SHAPER is enabled.

Assign netdev_ops before the PHY attach, as was done for emac in commit
7c9f391ec8 ("net: emac: move setting of netops to fix crash").

Fixes: ded86da4bb ("net: ethtool: relax ethnl_req_get_phydev() locking assertion")
