due to broken hardware.

<title>phylib: Fix auto-negotiation restart avoidance</title>

<content type='text'>
A previous patch, 51e2a3846eab18711f4eb59cd0a4c33054e2980a, made
genphy_config_aneg() not restart aneg by calling genphy_restart_aneg() if
the advertisement hadn't changed.

But, genphy_restart_aneg() doesn't just restart aneg, it may also *enable*
aneg or un-isolate the PHY from the MII (those functions are controlled by
the same register).  The code to avoid calling genphy_restart_aneg() didn't
consider this.

So, modify genphy_config_aneg() to also check if the PHY needs to have aneg
enabled or be un-isolated before deciding not to restart aneg.

This caused a problem with certain Davicom PHYs, as that driver isolates
the PHY (why?) before calling genphy_config_aneg() and expects the PHY to
be un-isolated by that function.

The driver core now has this helper function, so might as well use it
instead of forcing the phy code to roll their own version.

The PHY's aneg is configured and restarted whenever the link is brought up,
e.g. when DHCP is started after the kernel has booted.  This can take the
link down for several seconds while auto-negotiation is redone.

If the advertised features haven't changed, then it shouldn't be necessary
to bring down the link and start auto-negotiation over again.

genphy_config_advert() is enhanced to return 0 when the advertised features
haven't been changed and &gt;0 when they have been.

genphy_config_aneg() then uses this information to not call
genphy_restart_aneg() if there has been no change.

Commit cac1f3c8 factored out the code for get_phy_id so that it
could be reused in multiple places.  Turns out that some of the
users can be modular, so we need to export this symbol as well.

Sometimes the specific interaction between the platform and the PHY
requires special handling.  For instance, to change where the PHY's
clock input is, or to add a delay to account for latency issues in the
data path.  We add a mechanism for registering a callback with the PHY
Lib to be called on matching PHYs when they are brought up, or reset.

We were already doing what amounts to a get_phy_id from within
get_phy_device, and rather than duplicate this for the TBIPA
probing, we might as well just factor it out and make it available
instead.
