Subject: [PATCH 4.9 085/130] ravb: fix invalid context bug while changing link options by ethtool

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Vladimir Zapolskiy <vladimir_zapolskiy@...tor.com>

[ Upstream commit 05925e52a7d379192a5fdff2c33710f573190ead ]

The change fixes sleep in atomic context bug, which is encountered
every time when link settings are changed by ethtool.

Since commit 35b5f6b1a82b ("PHYLIB: Locking fixes for PHY I/O
potentially sleeping") phy_start_aneg() function utilizes a mutex
to serialize changes to phy state, however that helper function is
called in atomic context under a grabbed spinlock, because
phy_start_aneg() is called by phy_ethtool_ksettings_set() and by
replaced phy_ethtool_sset() helpers from phylib.

Now duplex mode setting is enforced in ravb_adjust_link() only, also
now RX/TX is disabled when link is put down or modifications to E-MAC
registers ECMR and GECMR are expected for both cases of checked and
ignored link status pin state from E-MAC interrupt handler.
