<title>MIPS: mscc: ocelot: mark the phy-mode for internal PHY ports</title>

The ocelot driver was converted to phylink, and that expects a valid
phy_interface_t. Without a phy-mode, of_get_phy_mode returns
PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_NA, which is not ideal because phylink rejects that.

The ocelot driver was patched to treat PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_NA as
PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_INTERNAL to work with the broken DT blobs, but we
should fix the device trees and specify the phy-mode too.

<title>MIPS: mscc: ocelot: disable all switch ports by default</title>

<content type='text'>
The ocelot switch driver used to ignore ports which do not have a
phy-handle property and not probe those, but this is not quite ok since
it is valid to not have a phy-handle property if there is a fixed-link.

It seems that checking for a phy-handle was a proxy for the proper check
which is for the status, but that doesn't make a lot of sense, since the
ocelot driver already iterates using for_each_available_child_of_node
which skips the disabled ports, so I have no idea.

Anyway, a widespread pattern in device trees is for a SoC dtsi to
disable by default all hardware, and let board dts files enable what is
used. So let's do that and enable only the ports with a phy-handle in
the pcb120 and pcb123 device tree files.

CPC and CDMM addresses are adjustable and we should tell kernel
how to place them in devicetree.

Note that MACH_PISTACHIO code hardcoded CDMM base to 0x1bdd0000,
however it will collide with GIC address range. As we don't have
any CDMM device on this platform it won't be a problem.
I found another spare range, 0x1bdf0000~0x1be00000 to place CDMM
instead.

Marduk is based on IMG pistachio SoC. The platform is using
MIPS UHI booting protocol and does have a proper devicetree
implement, thus it could be a part of generic kernel.

My series to clean up the unaligned access implementation
across architectures caused some mips randconfig builds to
fail with:

   mips64-linux-ld: arch/mips/boot/compressed/decompress.o: in function `decompress_kernel':
   decompress.c:(.text.decompress_kernel+0x54): undefined reference to `__bswapsi2'

It turns out that this problem has already been fixed for the XZ
decompressor but now it also shows up in (at least) LZO and LZ4.  From my
analysis I concluded that the compiler could always have emitted those
calls, but the different implementation allowed it to make otherwise
better decisions about not inlining the byteswap, which results in the
link error when the out-of-line code is missing.

While it could be addressed by adding it to the two decompressor
implementations that are known to be affected, but as this only adds
112 bytes to the kernel, the safer choice is to always add them.
