Subject: [RFC PATCH 0/3] acpi: Add acpi mdio support code

Originally I just push "phy-handle" support for ACPI on the QCOM QDF2400
platform. After some discussion and following Andrew's advice, I send
out with a generic version of ACPI.

Current there is no clear documentation about MDIO/PHY for ACPI, so when
I reading some documents about ACPI [1], I think we just need to reuse the
DT binding in the ACPI.[2]. However, this series of patches are not
fully compatible with all contents specified in DT binding.

The most important thing about this iseries is link the phy device and
fwnode of acpi. Besides, we need to carry out bus scan at the mdio
register. Therefore, I am not compatible with more DT binding properties
in this series of patches. More support will be in the follow-up patches
support, or some people do the support.

Example:
Based on ACPI doc:
    Documentation/acpi/dsd/data-node-references.txt
    Documentation/acpi/dsd/graph.txt
With _DSD device properties we can finally do this:
    Device (MDIO) {
        Name (_DSD, Package () {
            ToUUID("dbb8e3e6-5886-4ba6-8795-1319f52a966b"),
            Package () { Package () { "ethernet-phy@0", PHY0 }, }
        })
        Name (PHY0, Package() {
            ToUUID("daffd814-6eba-4d8c-8a91-bc9bbf4aa301"),
            Package () { Package () { "reg", 0x0 }, }
        })
    }

    Device (MACO) {
        Name (_DSD, Package () {
            ToUUID ("daffd814-6eba-4d8c-8a91-bc9bbf4aa301"),
            Package () { Package () { "phy-handle", \_SB.MDIO, "ethernet-phy@0" }, }
        })
    }

Tested: QDF2400 (ACPI), buildin/insmod/rmmod
