[ Upstream commit 195e2addbce09e5afbc766efc1e6567c9ce840d3 ]

The 'sh_eth' driver's probe() method would fail on the SolutionEngine7710 board and crash on SolutionEngine7712 board as the platform code is hopelessly behind the driver's platform data -- it passes the PHY address instead of 'struct sh_eth_plat_data *'; pass the latter to the driver in order to fix the bug...
