net: phy: fix potential race in the phylib state machine

Russell reported the following race in the phylib state machine
(quoting from his mail):

if (phy_polling_mode(phydev) && phy_is_started(phydev))
	phy_queue_state_machine(phydev, PHY_STATE_TIME);

state = PHY_UP
thread 0			thread 1
				phy_disconnect()
				+-phy_is_started()
phy_is_started()                |
				`-phy_stop()
				  +-phydev->state = PHY_HALTED
				  `-phy_stop_machine()
				    `-cancel_delayed_work_sync()
phy_queue_state_machine()
`-mod_delayed_work()

At this point, the phydev->state_queue() has been added back onto the
system workqueue despite phy_stop_machine() having been called and
cancel_delayed_work_sync() called on it.

Fix this by protecting the complete operation in thread 0.
