sky2: hold spinlock around phy_power_down

Avoid any possible problems with accessing PHY registers on shutdown.
This is a purely theoretical issue and is not related to any of the
outstanding bug reports. Since receiver and transmitter are already
shutdown and phy interrupts for this device are already disabled,
there should already be enough protection. Suggested by Mike McCormack.
