Convert `to_gbphy_dev` and `to_gbphy_driver` macros into a
static inline function.

it is not great to have macro that use `container_of` macro,
because from looking at the definition one cannot tell what type
it applies to.

One can get the same benefit from an efficiency point of view
by making an inline function.

change in v2:
remove newlines added in previous patch.

change in v3:
fix the patch to be against Greg's tree.
I am lost in a twisty maze of patches from you for the greybus code that
all seem alike but are different :(

I am sorry for that.

Can you send a patch series of the latest changes you have made, as I
really don't know what is, and is not, the latest versions at all, so
I'm going to have to drop them all from my review queue right now.


Sure, I will.
