Core of the problem is that phy_suspend() suspends the PHY when it
should not because of WoL. phy_suspend() checks for WoL already, but
this works only if the PHY driver handles WoL (what is rarely the case).
Typically WoL is handled by the MAC driver.

This patch uses new member wol_enabled of struct net_device as
additional criteria in the check when not to suspend the PHY because
of WoL.

Last but not least change phy_detach() to call phy_suspend() before
attached_dev is set to NULL. phy_suspend() accesses attached_dev
when checking whether the MAC driver activated WoL.

Fixes: f1e911d5d0df ("r8169: add basic phylib support")
Fixes: e8cfd9d6c772 ("net: phy: call state machine synchronously in phy_stop")

Actually there's nothing wrong with the two changes marked as "Fixes",
they just revealed a problem which has been existing before.
After having switched r8169 to phylib it was reported that WoL from
shutdown doesn't work any longer (WoL from suspend isn't affected).
Reason is that during shutdown phy_disconnect()-&gt;phy_detach()-&gt;
phy_suspend() is called.
A similar issue occurs when the phylib state machine calls
phy_suspend() when handling state PHY_HALTED.

Core of the problem is that phy_suspend() suspends the PHY when it
should not due to WoL. phy_suspend() checks for WoL already, but this
works only if the PHY driver handles WoL (what is rarely the case).
Typically WoL is handled by the MAC driver.

phylib knows about this and handles it in mdio_bus_phy_may_suspend(),
but that's used only when suspending the system, not in other cases
like shutdown.

Therefore factor out the relevant check from
mdio_bus_phy_may_suspend() to a new function phy_may_suspend() and
use it in phy_suspend().

Last but not least change phy_detach() to call phy_suspend() before
attached_dev is set to NULL. phy_suspend() accesses attached_dev
when checking whether the MAC driver activated WoL.

Certain PHY's have issues when operating in GBit slave mode and can
be forced to master mode. Examples are RTL8211C, also the Micrel PHY
driver has a DT setting to force master mode.
If two such chips are link partners the autonegotiation will fail.
Standard defines a self-clearing on read, latched-high bit to
indicate this error. Check this bit to inform the user.

Currently also the pause flags are removed from phydev-&gt;supported because
they're not included in PHY_DEFAULT_FEATURES. I don't think this is
intended, especially when considering that this function can be called
via phy_set_max_speed() anywhere in a driver. Change the masking to mask
out only the values we're going to change. In addition remove the
misleading comment, job of this small function is just to adjust the
supported and advertised speeds.

A PHY is a type of MDIO device, so let's model it as struct device_type
and place PM ops, attribute groups and release callback on device type
level. For this the attribute definitions have to be moved.
This change allows us to get rid of the PM ops on a bus level in a second
step.

Some MDIO busses will error out when trying to read a phy address with no
phy present at that address. In that case, probing the bus will fail
because __mdiobus_register() is scanning the bus for all possible phys
addresses.

In case MII_PHYSID1 returns -EIO or -ENODEV, consider there is no phy at
this address and set the phy ID to 0xffffffff which is then properly
handled in get_phy_device().

Fun set of conflict resolutions here...

For the mac80211 stuff, these were fortunately just parallel
adds.  Trivially resolved.

In drivers/net/phy/phy.c we had a bug fix in 'net' that moved the
function phy_disable_interrupts() earlier in the file, whilst in
'net-next' the phy_error() call from this function was removed.

In net/ipv4/xfrm4_policy.c, David Ahern's changes to remove the
'rt_table_id' member of rtable collided with a bug fix in 'net' that
added a new struct member "rt_mtu_locked" which needs to be copied
over here.

The mlxsw driver conflict consisted of net-next separating
the span code and definitions into separate files, whilst
a 'net' bug fix made some changes to that moved code.

The mlx5 infiniband conflict resolution was quite non-trivial,
the RDMA tree's merge commit was used as a guide here, and
here are their notes:

====================

    Due to bug fixes found by the syzkaller bot and taken into the for-rc
    branch after development for the 4.17 merge window had already started
    being taken into the for-next branch, there were fairly non-trivial
    merge issues that would need to be resolved between the for-rc branch
    and the for-next branch.  This merge resolves those conflicts and
    provides a unified base upon which ongoing development for 4.17 can
    be based.

    Conflicts:
            drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/main.c - Commit 42cea83f9524
            (IB/mlx5: Fix cleanup order on unload) added to for-rc and
            commit b5ca15ad7e61 (IB/mlx5: Add proper representors support)
            add as part of the devel cycle both needed to modify the
            init/de-init functions used by mlx5.  To support the new
            representors, the new functions added by the cleanup patch
            needed to be made non-static, and the init/de-init list
            added by the representors patch needed to be modified to
            match the init/de-init list changes made by the cleanup
            patch.
    Updates:
            drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/mlx5_ib.h - Update function
            prototypes added by representors patch to reflect new function
            names as changed by cleanup patch

For some phy devices, even though they don't support the MMD extended
register access, it does have some side effect if we are trying to
read/write the MMD registers via indirect method. So introduce general
dummy stubs for MMD register access which these devices can use to avoid
such side effect.

Some ethernet drivers (like TI CPSW) may connect and manage &gt;1 Net PHYs per
one netdevice, as result such drivers will produce warning during system
boot and fail to connect second phy to netdevice when PHYLIB framework
will try to create sysfs link netdev-&gt;phydev for second PHY
in phy_attach_direct(), because sysfs link with the same name has been
created already for the first PHY. As result, second CPSW external
port will became unusable.

Fix it by relaxing error checking when PHYLIB framework is creating sysfs
link netdev-&gt;phydev in phy_attach_direct(), suppressing warning by using
sysfs_create_link_nowarn() and adding error message instead.
After this change links (phy-&gt;netdev and netdev-&gt;phy) creation failure is not
fatal any more and system can continue working, which fixes TI CPSW issue.
