Remove unused phys from p1010rdb

[yensid]

I'm still resonably new to embedded linux and I have a question about removing the hardware support from linux for 2 phys we won't be using from the P1010RDB.  We have our own PCB modeled after the P1010RDB and a P1010RDB.  Our PCB only has one phy on eTsec1 setup as RGMII, and the other connections for eTsec2 & 3 are left open.  I removed support from p1010si-post.dtsi, p1010si-pre.dtsi, and p1010rdb.dtsi for the unused hardware as well as the U-boot configuration file.  When I boot up the p1010RDB with this changes, only one phy/ethernet port is found, and the system comes up normally.  When I run this same uboot, kernel, fdt, and rfs on our PCB only one phy/eTsecnet port is found but then the kernel will panic later in boot. The panic appears related to the caam crypto device interrupt later while booting. 

Thanks and any advice is appreciated!
