Subject: [PATCH net-next v4 4/9] net: phy: micrel: apply resume errata workaround for ksz8873 and ksz8863

The ksz8873 and ksz8863 switches are affected by following errata:

| "Receiver error in 100BASE-TX mode following Soft Power Down"
|
| Some KSZ8873 devices may exhibit receiver errors after transitioning
| from Soft Power Down mode to Normal mode, as controlled by register 195
| (0xC3) bits [1:0]. When exiting Soft Power Down mode, the receiver
| blocks may not start up properly, causing the PHY to miss data and
| exhibit erratic behavior. The problem may appear on either port 1 or
| port 2, or both ports. The problem occurs only for 100BASE-TX, not
| 10BASE-T.
|
| END USER IMPLICATIONS
| When the failure occurs, the following symptoms are seen on the affected
| port(s):
| - The port is able to link
| - LED0 blinks, even when there is no traffic
| - The MIB counters indicate receive errors (Rx Fragments, Rx Symbol
|   Errors, Rx CRC Errors, Rx Alignment Errors)
| - Only a small fraction of packets is correctly received and forwarded
|   through the switch. Most packets are dropped due to receive errors.
|
| The failing condition cannot be corrected by the following:
| - Removing and reconnecting the cable
| - Hardware reset
| - Software Reset and PCS Reset bits in register 67 (0x43)
|
| Work around:
| The problem can be corrected by setting and then clearing the Port Power
| Down bits (registers 29 (0x1D) and 45 (0x2D), bit 3). This must be done
| separately for each affected port after returning from Soft Power Down
| Mode to Normal Mode. The following procedure will ensure no further
| issues due to this erratum. To enter Soft Power Down Mode, set register
| 195 (0xC3), bits [1:0] = 10.
|
| To exit Soft Power Down Mode, follow these steps:
| 1. Set register 195 (0xC3), bits [1:0] = 00 // Exit soft power down mode
| 2. Wait 1ms minimum
| 3. Set register 29 (0x1D), bit [3] = 1 // Enter PHY port 1 power down mode
| 4. Set register 29 (0x1D), bit [3] = 0 // Exit PHY port 1 power down mode
| 5. Set register 45 (0x2D), bit [3] = 1 // Enter PHY port 2 power down mode
| 6. Set register 45 (0x2D), bit [3] = 0 // Exit PHY port 2 power down mode

This patch implements steps 2...6 of the suggested workaround. During
(initial) switch power up, step 1 is executed by the dsa/ksz8795
driver's probe function.

Note: In this workaround we toggle the MII_BMCR register's BMCR_PDOWN
bit, this is translated to the actual register and bit (as mentioned in
the arratum) by the ksz8_r_phy()/ksz8_w_phy() functions.
