Update xgbe-phy-v2.c to make use of the auto-negotiation (AN) phy hooks to improve the ability to successfully complete Clause 73 AN when running at 10gbps. Hardware can sometimes have issues with CDR lock when the AN DME page exchange is being performed. The AN and KR training hooks are used as follows: - The pre AN hook is used to disable CDR tracking in the PHY so that the DME page exchange can be successfully and consistently completed. - The post KR training hook is used to re-enable the CDR tracking so that KR training can successfully complete. - The post AN hook is used to check for an unsuccessful AN which will increase a CDR tracking enablement delay (up to a maximum value). Add two debugfs entries to allow control over use of the CDR tracking workaround. The debugfs entries allow the CDR tracking workaround to be disabled and determine whether to re-enable CDR tracking before or after link training has been initiated. Also, with these changes the receiver reset cycle that is performed during the link status check can be performed less often.

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.
