Convert the PPv2 driver to implement phylink helpers, and use phylink in DT mode. The other mode supported is ACPI, which will need further work in order to be entirely compatible with phylink. The MAC and GoP configuration functions were completely moved to fit into the phylink helpers. When a PHY is always present between the MAC and the physical port, phylink only is used, but when this is not the case (the MAC directly is connected to the physical port) the link IRQ is used to detect changes in the link state and call phylink_mac_change. The ACPI mode do not uses phylink as of now, and the changes shouldn't impact its use. Signed-off-by: Antoine Tenart <antoine.tenart@bootlin.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
