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.

<title>net: Change the API of PHY default timestamp to MAC</title>

Change the API to select MAC default time stamping instead of the PHY.
Indeed the PHY is closer to the wire therefore theoretically it has less
delay than the MAC timestamping but the reality is different. Due to lower
time stamping clock frequency, latency in the MDIO bus and no PHC hardware
synchronization between different PHY, the PHY PTP is often less precise
than the MAC. The exception is for PHY designed specially for PTP case but
these devices are not very widespread. For not breaking the compatibility
default_timestamp flag has been introduced in phy_device that is set by
the phy driver to know we are using the old API behavior.

<title>net: phy: extend PHY package API to support multiple global address</title>

<id>9eea577eb1155fe4a183bc5e7bf269b0b2e7a6ba</id>
<content type='text'>
Current API for PHY package are limited to single address to configure
global settings for the PHY package.

It was found that some PHY package (for example the qca807x, a PHY
package that is shipped with a bundle of 5 PHY) requires multiple PHY
address to configure global settings. An example scenario is a PHY that
have a dedicated PHY for PSGMII/serdes calibrarion and have a specific
PHY in the package where the global PHY mode is set and affects every
other PHY in the package.

Change the API in the following way:
- Change phy_package_join() to take the base addr of the PHY package
  instead of the global PHY addr.
- Make __/phy_package_write/read() require an additional arg that
  select what global PHY address to use by passing the offset from the
  base addr passed on phy_package_join().

Each user of this API is updated to follow this new implementation
following a pattern where an enum is defined to declare the offset of the
addr.

We also drop the check if shared is defined as any user of the
phy_package_read/write is expected to use phy_package_join first. Misuse
of this will correctly trigger a kernel panic for NULL pointer
exception.

The phy_set_timestamp function is called at each call of phy_attach_direct.
In case of MAC driver using phylink this function is called when the
interface is turned up. Then if the interface goes down and up again the
last choice of timestamp will be overwritten by the default choice.
A solution could be to cache the timestamp status but it can bring other
issues. In case of SFP, if we change the module, it doesn't make sense to
blindly re-set the timestamp back to PHY, if the new module has a PHY with
mediocre timestamping capabilities.

The PHYs hwtstamp callback are still getting the timestamp config from
ifreq and using copy_from/to_user.
Get rid of these functions by using timestamp configuration in parameter.
This also allow to move on to kernel_hwtstamp_config and be similar to
net devices using the new ndo_hwstamp_get/set.

This adds the possibility to manipulate the timestamp configuration
from the kernel which was not possible with the copy_from/to_user.

Two deadly typos break RX and TX traffic on the VSC8502 PHY using RGMII
if phy-mode = "rgmii-id" or "rgmii-txid", and no "tx-internal-delay-ps"
override exists. The negative error code from phy_get_internal_delay()
does not get overridden with the delay deduced from the phy-mode, and
later gets committed to hardware. Also, the rx_delay gets overridden by
what should have been the tx_delay.

Two deadly typos break RX and TX traffic on the VSC8502 PHY using RGMII
if phy-mode = "rgmii-id" or "rgmii-txid", and no "tx-internal-delay-ps"
override exists. The negative error code from phy_get_internal_delay()
does not get overridden with the delay deduced from the phy-mode, and
later gets committed to hardware. Also, the rx_delay gets overridden by
what should have been the tx_delay.

Fixes: dbb050d2bfc8 ("phy: mscc: Add support for RGMII delay configuration")
