Gabor Juhos d64888ffc0 generic: ar8216: register the switch from the probe routine
Currently the switch gets registered when an ethernet
driver connects to a PHY of the switch. This method does
not work with the ethernet drivers which are connecting
to the PHY from their ndo_open callback. With those
ethernet drivers, the driver tries to register the switch
each time when the etherned device is opened and this causes
a deadlock.

Move the switch registration into the probe routine to fix
this problem.
