NET: Support clause 45 MDIO commands at the MDIO bus level
IEEE 802.3ae clause 45 specifies a somewhat modified MDIO protocol for use by 10GIGE phys. The main change is a 21 bit address split into a 5 bit device ID and a 16 bit register offset. The definition is designed so that normal and extended devices can run on the same MDIO bus. Extend mdio-bitbang to do the new protocol. At the MDIO bus level the protocol is requested by or'ing MII_ADDR_C45 into the register offset. Make phy_read/phy_write/etc pass a full 32 bit register offset. This does not attempt to make the phy layer support C45 style PHYs, just to provide the MDIO bus support. Tested against a Broadcom 10GE phy with ID 0x206034, and several Broadcom 10/100/1000 Phys in normal mode. Signed-off-by: Jason Gunthorpe <jgunthorpe@obsidianresearch.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
