An oops exists in the flow of stmmac_release().
phy_ethtool_get_wol() depends on phydev->drv which will be null in
stmmac_dvr_remove after stmmac_mdio_unreg() completes.

Steps to reproduce on Quark X1000:

1. ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.1
2. rmmod stmmac_pci

This patch re-orders the calling of the unreg() functions so that
stmmac_unreg_mdio() happens later in the release() routine thus avoiding the
null pointer dereference.
