[ Upstream commit c2b727df7caa33876e7066bde090f40001b6d643 ]

If we have unbound the PHY driver prior to calling phy_detach() (often
via phy_disconnect()) then we can cause a NULL pointer de-reference
accessing the driver owner member. The steps to reproduce are:

echo unimac-mdio-0:01 &gt; /sys/class/net/eth0/phydev/driver/unbind
ip link set eth0 down

[ Upstream commit 7d3ba9360c6dac7c077fbd6631e08f32ea2bcd53 ]

Since the micrel phy driver calls phy_init_hw() as a workaround,
the commit 9886a4dbd2aa ("net: phy: call phy_disable_interrupts()
in phy_init_hw()") disables the interrupt unexpectedly. So,
call phy_disable_interrupts() in phy_attach_direct() instead.
Otherwise, the phy cannot link up after the ethernet cable was
disconnected.

Note that other drivers (like at803x.c) also calls phy_init_hw().
So, perhaps, the driver caused a similar issue too.

Call phy_disable_interrupts() in phy_init_hw() to "have a defined init
state as we don't know in which state the PHY is if the PHY driver is
loaded. We shouldn't assume that it's the chip power-on defaults, BIOS
or boot loader could have changed this. Or in case of dual-boot
systems the other OS could leave the PHY in whatever state." as pointed
out by Heiner.

Commit 02a6efcab675 ("net: phy: allow scanning busses with missing
phys") added a special condition to return -ENODEV in case -ENODEV or
-EIO was returned from the first read of the MII_PHYSID1 register.

In case the MDIO bus data line pull-up is not strong enough, the MDIO
bus controller will not flag this as a read error. This can happen when
a pluggable daughter card is not connected and weak internal pull-ups
are used (since that is the only option, otherwise the pins are
floating).

The second read of MII_PHYSID2 will be correctly flagged an error
though, but now we will return -EIO which will be treated as a hard
error, thus preventing MDIO bus scanning loops to continue succesfully.

Apply the same logic to both register reads, thus allowing the scanning
logic to proceed.

There is a recurring pattern throughout some of the PHY code converting
a devad and regnum to our packed clause 45 representation. Rather than
having this scattered around the code, let's put a common translation
function in mdio.h, and provide some register accessors.

Convert the phylib core, phylink, bcm87xx and cortina to use these.

This function was introduced to allow for different handling of
link up and link down events particularly with regard to the
netif_carrier. The third argument do_carrier allowed the flag to
be left unchanged.

Since then the phylink has introduced an implementation that
completely ignores the third parameter since it never wants to
change the flag and the phylib always sets the third parameter
to true so the flag is always changed.

Therefore the third argument (i.e. do_carrier) is no longer
necessary and can be removed. This also means that the phylib
phy_link_down() function no longer needs its second argument.
