Subject: [net-next PATCH v3 04/11] net: phylink: add phylink_release_pcs() to externally release a PCS

Add phylink_release_pcs() to externally release a PCS from a phylink
instance. This can be used to handle case when a single PCS needs to be
removed and the phylink instance needs to be refreshed.

On calling phylink_release_pcs(), the PCS will be removed from the
phylink internal PCS list and the phylink supported_interfaces value is
reparsed with the remaining PCS interfaces.

Also a phylink resolve is triggered to handle the PCS removal.

A flag to make phylink resolve reconfigure the interface (even if it
didn't change) is also added. This is needed to handle the special
case when the current PCS used by phylink is removed and a major_config
is needed to propagae the configuration change. With this option
enabled we also force mac_config even if the PHY link is not up for
the in-band case.
