Use the new gpiod_get_array and gpiod_put_array functions
(added to mainline in the v4.1 merge window) for obtaining and
disposing of GPIO descriptors.

Some systems using mdio-gpio may use gpio on message based busses, which
require sleeping (e.g. gpio from an I2C I/O expander).

Since this driver does not use IRQ handler, it is safe to use the
_cansleep suffixed gpio accessors.

Pull networking updates from David Miller:

 1) Add BQL support to via-rhine, from Tino Reichardt.

 2) Integrate SWITCHDEV layer support into the DSA layer, so DSA drivers
    can support hw switch offloading.  From Floria Fainelli.

 3) Allow 'ip address' commands to initiate multicast group join/leave,
    from Madhu Challa.

 4) Many ipv4 FIB lookup optimizations from Alexander Duyck.

 5) Support EBPF in cls_bpf classifier and act_bpf action, from Daniel
    Borkmann.

 6) Remove the ugly compat support in ARP for ugly layers like ax25,
    rose, etc.  And use this to clean up the neigh layer, then use it to
    implement MPLS support.  All from Eric Biederman.

 7) Support L3 forwarding offloading in switches, from Scott Feldman.

 8) Collapse the LOCAL and MAIN ipv4 FIB tables when possible, to speed
    up route lookups even further.  From Alexander Duyck.

 9) Many improvements and bug fixes to the rhashtable implementation,
    from Herbert Xu and Thomas Graf.  In particular, in the case where
    an rhashtable user bulk adds a large number of items into an empty
    table, we expand the table much more sanely.

10) Don't make the tcp_metrics hash table per-namespace, from Eric
    Biederman.

11) Extend EBPF to access SKB fields, from Alexei Starovoitov.

12) Split out new connection request sockets so that they can be
    established in the main hash table.  Much less false sharing since
    hash lookups go direct to the request sockets instead of having to
    go first to the listener then to the request socks hashed
    underneath.  From Eric Dumazet.

13) Add async I/O support for crytpo AF_ALG sockets, from Tadeusz Struk.

14) Support stable privacy address generation for RFC7217 in IPV6.  From
    Hannes Frederic Sowa.

15) Hash network namespace into IP frag IDs, also from Hannes Frederic
    Sowa.

16) Convert PTP get/set methods to use 64-bit time, from Richard
    Cochran.

<title>add fixed_phy_update_state() - update state of fixed_phy</title>

Currently fixed_phy uses a callback to periodically poll the link state.
This patch adds the fixed_phy_update_state() API.
It solves the following problems:
- On link state interrupt, MAC driver can't update status.
Instead it needs to provide the callback to periodically query
the HW about the link state. It is more efficient to update status
after interrupt.
- The callback needs to be unregistered before phy_disconnect(),
or otherwise it will be called with net_dev==NULL. phy_disconnect()
does not have enough info to unregister the callback automatically.
- The callback needs to be registered before of_phy_connect() to
avoid running with outdated state, but of_phy_connect() returns the
phy_device pointer, which is needed to register the callback. Registering
it before of_phy_connect() will therefore require a hack to get the
pointer earlier.

Overall, this addition makes the subsequent patch that implements
SGMII link status for mvneta, much cleaner.

Since 39b2bbe3d715 (gpio: add flags argument to gpiod_get*() functions)
which appeared in v3.17-rc1, the gpiod_get* functions take an additional
parameter that allows to specify direction and initial value for output.
Moreover use devm_gpiod_get_optional instead of ignoring all errors
returned by devm_gpiod_get and simplify accordingly.

The result is more strict error handling which is good.

This device stores the number of seconds in a 32 bit register, and the
stored value is unsigned.  Therefore this driver and device are ready
for the year 2038.  However, more work will be needed prior to 2106.

Compile tested only.

<title>amd-xgbe-phy: Provide support for auto-negotiation timeout</title>

Currently, there is no interrupt code that indicates auto-negotiation
has timed out. If the auto-negotiation has timed out then the start of
a new auto-negotiation will begin again with a new base page being
received. The state machine could be in a state that is not expecting
this interrupt code which results in an error during auto-negotiation.

Update the code to timestamp when the auto-negotiation starts.  Should
another page received interrupt code occur before auto-negotiation has
completed but after the auto-negotiation timeout, then reset the state
machine to allow the auto-negotiation to continue.

received. The state machine could be in a state that is not expecting
this interrupt code which results in an error during auto-negotiation.

Update the code to timestamp when the auto-negotiation starts.  Should
another page received interrupt code occur before auto-negotiation has
completed but after the auto-negotiation timeout, then reset the state
machine to allow the auto-negotiation to continue.
