b43: fix NULL pointer dereference in b43_phy_copy()
phy_read and phy_write are not set for every phy any more sine this:

b43: don't duplicate common PHY read/write ops
b43_phy_copy() accesses phy_read and phy_write directly and will fail
with some phys. This patch fixes the regression by using the
b43_phy_read() and b43_phy_write() functions which should be used for
read and write access.
This should fix this bug report:
