3b3397e203 net: phy: meson-gxl: make function meson_gxl_read_status static
The function meson_gxl_read_status is local to the source and does
not need to be in global scope, so make it static.

Cleans up sparse warning:
symbol 'meson_gxl_read_status' was not declared. Should it be static?

f1e2400a80 net: phy: meson-gxl: detect LPA corruption
The purpose of this change is to fix the incorrect detection of the link
partner (LP) advertised capabilities which sometimes happens with this PHY
(roughly 1 time in a dozen)

This issue may cause the link to be negotiated at 10Mbps/Full or
10Mbps/Half when 100MBps/Full is actually possible. In some case, the link
is even completely broken and no communication is possible.

To detect the corruption, we must look for a magic undocumented bit in the
WOL bank (hint given by the SoC vendor kernel) but this is not enough to
cover all cases. We also have to look at the LPA ack. If the LP supports
Aneg but did not ack our base code when aneg is completed, we assume
something went wrong.

The detection of a corrupted LPA triggers a restart of the aneg process.
This solves the problem but may take up to 6 retries to complete.

7334b3e47a net: phy: Add Meson GXL Internal PHY driver
Add driver for the Internal RMII PHY found in the Amlogic Meson GXL SoCs.

This PHY seems to only implement some standard registers and need some
workarounds to provide autoneg values from vendor registers.

Some magic values are currently used to configure the PHY, and this a
temporary setup until clarification about these registers names and
registers fields are provided by Amlogic.
