Add a hook to determine whether the switch supports EEE. This will
return false if the switch does not, or true if it does. If the
method is not implemented, we assume (currently) that the switch

No driver now uses the DSA switch phylink members, so we can now remove
the method pointers, but we need to leave empty shim functions to allow
those drivers that do not provide phylink MAC operations structure to
continue functioning.

<title>net: dsa: provide a software untagging function on RX for VLAN-aware bridges</title>

<id>93e4649efa964201c73b0a03c35c04a0d6fc809f</id>
<content type='text'>
Through code analysis, I realized that the ds-&gt;untag_bridge_pvid logic
is contradictory - see the newly added FIXME above the kernel-doc for
dsa_software_untag_vlan_unaware_bridge().

Moreover, for the Felix driver, I need something very similar, but which
is actually _not_ contradictory: untag the bridge PVID on RX, but for
VLAN-aware bridges. The existing logic does it for VLAN-unaware bridges.

Since I don't want to change the functionality of drivers which were
supposedly properly tested with the ds-&gt;untag_bridge_pvid flag, I have
introduced a new one: ds-&gt;untag_vlan_aware_bridge_pvid, and I have
refactored the DSA reception code into a common path for both flags.

TODO: both flags should be unified under a single ds-&gt;software_vlan_untag,
which users of both current flags should set. This is not something that
can be carried out right away. It needs very careful examination of all
drivers which make use of this functionality, since some of them
actually get this wrong in the first place.

For example, commit 9130c2d30c17 ("net: dsa: microchip: ksz8795: Use
software untagging on CPU port") uses this in a driver which has
ds-&gt;configure_vlan_while_not_filtering = true. The latter mechanism has
been known for many years to be broken by design:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/CABumfLzJmXDN_W-8Z=p9KyKUVi_HhS7o_poBkeKHS2BkAiyYpw@mail.gmail.com/
and we have the situation of 2 bugs canceling each other. There is no
private VLAN, and the port follows the PVID of the VLAN-unaware bridge.
So, it's kinda ok for that driver to use the ds-&gt;untag_bridge_pvid
mechanism, in a broken way.

<content type='text'>
In prevision to add new UAPI for hwtstamp we will be limited to the struct
ethtool_ts_info that is currently passed in fixed binary format through the
ETHTOOL_GET_TS_INFO ethtool ioctl. It would be good if new kernel code
already started operating on an extensible kernel variant of that
structure, similar in concept to struct kernel_hwtstamp_config vs struct
hwtstamp_config.

Since struct ethtool_ts_info is in include/uapi/linux/ethtool.h, here
we introduce the kernel-only structure in include/linux/ethtool.h.
The manual copy is then made in the function called by ETHTOOL_GET_TS_INFO.

This commit introduces a new tagger based on 802.1q tagging.
It's designed for the vsc73xx driver. The VSC73xx family doesn't have
any tag support for the RGMII port, but it could be based on VLANs.
