[ Upstream commit dd4360c0e8504f2f7639c7f5d07c93cfd6a98333 ]

Restrict the 100Mbit forced-mode workaround to link-down transitions
only, to prevent repeated link reset cycles in certain configurations.

The workaround was originally introduced to improve signal reliability
when switching cables between long and short distances. It temporarily
forces the PHY into 10 Mbps before returning to 100 Mbps.

However, when used with autonegotiating link partners (e.g., Intel i350),
executing this workaround on every link change can confuse the partner
and cause constant renegotiation loops. This results in repeated link
down/up transitions and the PHY never reaching a stable state.

Limit the workaround to only run during the PHY_NOLINK state. This ensures
it is triggered only once per link drop, avoiding disruptive toggling
while still preserving its intended effect.

Note: I am not able to reproduce the original issue that this workaround
addresses. I can only confirm that 100 Mbit mode works correctly in my
test setup. Based on code inspection, I assume the workaround aims to
reset some internal state machine or signal block by toggling speeds.
However, a PHY reset is already performed earlier in the function via
phy_init_hw(), which may achieve a similar effect. Without a reproducer,
I conservatively keep the workaround but restrict its conditions.

[ Upstream commit e57cf3639c323eeed05d3725fd82f91b349adca8 ]

Move the LAN7800 internal phy (phy ID  0x0007c132) specific register
accesses to the phy driver (microchip.c).

Fix the error reported by Enguerrand de Ribaucourt in December 2022,
"Some operations during the cable switch workaround modify the register
LAN88XX_INT_MASK of the PHY. However, this register is specific to the
LAN8835 PHY. For instance, if a DP8322I PHY is connected to the LAN7801,
that register (0x19), corresponds to the LED and MAC address
configuration, resulting in unapropriate behavior."

I did not test with the DP8322I PHY, but I tested with an EVB-LAN7800
with the internal PHY.

<title>net: phy: remove calls to genphy_config_init</title>

Supported PHY features are either auto-detected or explicitly set.
In both cases calling genphy_config_init isn't needed. All that
genphy_config_init does is removing features that are set as
supported but can't be auto-detected. Basically it duplicates the
code in genphy_read_abilities. Therefore remove such calls from
all PHY drivers.

v2:
- remove call also from new adin PHY driver
v3:
- pass NULL as config_init function pointer for dp83848

<title>net: phy: switch drivers to use dynamic feature detection</title>

Recently genphy_read_abilities() has been added that dynamically detects
clause 22 PHY abilities. I *think* this detection should work with all
supported PHY's, at least for the ones with basic features sets, i.e.
PHY_BASIC_FEATURES and PHY_GBIT_FEATURES. So let's remove setting these
features explicitly and rely on phylib feature detection.

I don't have access to most of these PHY's, therefore I'd appreciate
regression testing.

v2:
- make the feature constant a comment so that readers know which
  features are supported by the respective PHY

Add support for DT property "microchip,led-modes", a vector of zero
to four cells (u32s) in the range 0-15, each of which sets the mode
for one of the LEDs. Some possible values are:

    0=link/activity          1=link1000/activity
    2=link100/activity       3=link10/activity
    4=link100/1000/activity  5=link10/1000/activity
    6=link10/100/activity    14=off    15=on

These values are given symbolic constants in a dt-bindings header.

Also use the presence of the DT property to indicate that the
LEDs should be enabled - necessary in the event that no valid OTP
or EEPROM is available.
