Currently, SGMII based 1G rely on the hardware registers for link state
and sometimes it's not reliable.  To get most accurate link state, this
interface has to use the MDIO bus to poll the PHY.

In X-Gene SoC, MDIO bus is shared across RGMII and SGMII based 1G
interfaces, so adding this driver to manage MDIO bus.  This driver
registers the mdio bus and registers the PHYs connected to it.

iProc based SoCs supports the integrated mdio multiplexer which
has the bus selection as well as mdio transaction generation logic
inside.

This multiplexer has child buses for PCIe, SATA, USB and ETH. These
buses could be internal or external to SOC where PHYs are attached.
These buses could use C-45 or C-22 mdio transaction.

The Cavium Thunder SoCs have multiple MIDO buses that are part of a
single PCI device.  To model this in the device tree we call the PCI
parent device a "cavium,thunder-8890-mdio-nexus", it has several
children, one for each MDIO bus.

The MDIO bus hardware is identical to that found in the OCTEON SoCs,
so we use that code for things that are not part of the PCI driver
probe/remove

<id>1eefee901fca0208b8a56f20cdc134e2b8638ae7</id>
<content type='text'>
A follow-on patch uses PCI probing to find the Thunder MDIO hardware.
In preparation for this, split out the common code into a new file
mdio-cavium.c, which will be used by both the existing OCTEON driver,
and the new Thunder PCI based driver.

As part of the refactoring simplify the struct cavium_mdiobus by
removing fields that are only ever used in the probe function and can
just as well be local variables.

Use readq/writeq in preference to readq_relaxed/writeq_relaxed as the
relaxed form was an optimization for an early chip revision, and the
MDIO drivers are not performance bottlenecks that need optimization in
the first place.
