Subject: [PATCH net] net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: do not allow inband AN for 2500base-x mode

Commit a5a6858b793ff ("net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: extend phylink to Serdes
PHYs") introduced method mv88e6390_serdes_pcs_config(), which is called
(indirectly) by phylink to configure the PCS.

This method enables inband AN if requested by phylink.

It seems though that for 2500base-x mode some of these switches (at
least Amethyst) do not support inband AN on Serdes.

Moreover the above mentioned commit causes a regression when the Serdes
of the switch is connected to a Marvell 88X3310 PHY in 2500base-x mode,
because this PHY does not enable inband AN when it self-switches to
2500base-x (nor does it seem to work if manually enabling AN by writing
the register), and it seems that 88E6390 devices won't link on
2500base-x mode if AN is enabled on the switch and disabled on the peer.

Since it seems that 2500base-x mode has no definitive documentation of
what exactly it is, and that Marvell devices disable inband AN when
switching to this mode, this patch disables inband AN when configuring
for 2500base-x in the mv88e6390_serdes_pcs_config() function and prints
a warning if such mode is requested. mv88e6xxx_serdes_pcs_get_state is
edited accordingly.

We may need to refactor phylink code to not request inband AN for
2500base-x at all, but until then we need at least to fix this
regression.
