Drop specific PHY ID check for cable test functions for at803x. This is
done to make functions more generic. While at it better describe what
the functions does by using more symbolic function names.
PHYs that requires to set additional reg are moved to specific function
calling the more generic one.
cdt_start and cdt_wait_for_completion are changed to take an additional
arg to pass specific values specific to the PHY.

Move at8035 specific DT parse for clock out frequency to dedicated probe
to make at803x probe function more generic.
This is to tidy code and no behaviour change are intended.
Detection logic is changed, we check if the clk 25m mask is set and if
it's not zero, we assume the qca,clk-out-frequency property is set.
The property is checked in the generic at803x_parse_dt called by
at803x_probe.

Remove the leftover mode_supported() op and use mode_get() to fill up

A framer is a component in charge of an E1/T1 line interface.
Connected usually to a TDM bus, it converts TDM frames to/from E1/T1
frames. It also provides information related to the E1/T1 line.
The framer framework provides a set of APIs for the framer drivers
(framer provider) to create/destroy a framer and APIs for the framer
users (framer consumer) to obtain a reference to the framer, and
use the framer.
This basic implementation provides a framer abstraction for:
- power on/off the framer
- get the framer status (line state)
- be notified on framer status changes
- get/set the framer configuration

The MTU callbacks are in layer 1 size, so for example 1500
bytes is a normal setting. Cache this size, and only add
the layer 2 framing right before choosing the setting. On
the CPU port this will however include the DSA tag since
this is transmitted from the parent ethernet interface!
Add the layer 2 overhead such as ethernet and VLAN framing
and FCS before selecting the size in the register.
This will make the code easier to understand.
The rtl8366rb_max_mtu() callback returns a bogus MTU
just subtracting the CPU tag, which is the only thing
we should NOT subtract. Return the correct layer 1
max MTU after removing headers and checksum.

The driver is using iowriteXX()/ioreadXX() APIs which are LE IO
accessors simplified as
1. Convert given value _from_ CPU _to_ LE
2. Write it to the device as is
The dev_addr is a byte stream, but because the driver uses 16-bit
IO accessors, it wants to perform double conversion on BE CPUs,
but it took it wrong, as it effectivelly does two times _from_ CPU
_to_ LE. What it has to do is to consider dev_addr as an array of
LE16 and hence do _from_ LE _to_ CPU conversion, followed by implied
_from_ CPU _to_ LE in the iowrite16().
To achieve that, use get_unaligned_le16(). This will make it correct
and allows to avoid sparse warning as reported by LKP.

net/sched: conditional notification of events for cls and act
This is an optimization we have been leveraging on P4TC but we believe
it will benefit rtnl users in general.
It's common to allocate an skb, build a notification message and then
broadcast an event. In the absence of any user space listeners, these
resources (cpu and memory operations) are wasted. In cases where the subsystem
is lockless (such as in tc-flower) this waste is more prominent. For the
scenarios where the rtnl_lock is held it is not as prominent.
The idea is simple. Build and send the notification iif:
- The user requests via NLM_F_ECHO or
- Someone is listening to the rtnl group (tc mon)
On a simple test with tc-flower adding 1M entries, using just a single core,
there's already a noticeable difference in the cycles spent in tc_new_tfilter
with this patchset.

0.66% __tcf_qdisc_find.part.0
0.64% __tcf_chain_get
0.54% fl_get
+ 0.53% tcf_proto_lookup_ops
after:
- 39.20% tc_new_tfilter
+ 34.58% fl_change
0.69% __tcf_qdisc_find.part.0
0.67% __tcf_chain_get
+ 0.61% tcf_proto_lookup_ops
Note, the above test is using iproute2:tc which execs a shell.
We expect people using netlink directly to observe even greater
reductions.
The qdisc side needs some refactoring of the notification routines to fit in
this new model, so they will be sent in a later patchset.

As of today tc-filter/chain events are unconditionally built and sent to
RTNLGRP_TC. As with the introduction of rtnl_notify_needed we can check
before-hand if they are really needed. This will help to alleviate
system pressure when filters are concurrently added without the rtnl
lock as in tc-flower.

This argument is never called while set to true, so remove it as there's
no need for it.

This is a convenience helper for routines handling conditional rtnl
events, that is code that might send a notification depending on
rtnl_has_listeners/rtnl_notify_needed.
Instead of:
if (skb)
rtnetlink_send(...)
Use:
rtnetlink_maybe_send(...)

Building on the rtnl_has_listeners helper, add the rtnl_notify_needed
helper to check if we can bail out early in the notification routines.

As of today, rtnl code creates a new skb and unconditionally fills and
broadcasts it to the relevant group. For most operations this is okay
and doesn't waste resources in general.
When operations are done without the rtnl_lock, as in tc-flower, such
skb allocation, message fill and no-op broadcasting can happen in all
cores of the system, which contributes to system pressure and wastes
precious cpu cycles when no one will receive the built message.
Introduce this helper so rtnetlink operations can simply check if someone
is listening and then proceed if necessary.
