ucc_geth: Fix deadlock

This script:
 while [ 1==1 ] ; do ifconfig eth0 up; usleep 1950000 ;ifconfig eth0 down; dmesg -c ;done
causes in just a second or two:
INFO: task ifconfig:572 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
"echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.

The reason appears to be ucc_geth_stop meets adjust_link as the
PHY reports PHY changes. I belive adjust_link hangs somewhere,
holding the PHY lock, because ucc_geth_stop disabled the
controller HW.
Fix is to stop the PHY before disabling the controller.
