Add missing error checks in mmd_phy_indirect(). The error checks need to
be disabled to retain the current behavior in phy_read_mmd() and
phy_write_mmd(). Therefore, add a new parameter to enable the error
checks. Add a thin wrapper __phy_mmd_indirect() which is then exported.

Do we need to retain the current behavior? Is there a good reason to
silently ignore errors? If there is, it would be good to state it here
in the commit message.
