====================
net: phy: Rework linkmodes handling in a dedicated file
This is V5 of the phy_caps series. In a nutshell, this series reworks the way
we maintain the list of speed/duplex capablities for each linkmode so that we
no longer have multiple definition of these associations.
That will help making sure that when people add new linkmodes in
include/uapi/linux/ethtool.h, they don't have to update phylib and phylink as
well, making the process more straightforward and less error-prone.
It also generalises the phy_caps interface to be able to lookup linkmodes
from phy_interface_t, which is needed for the multi-port work I've been working
on for a while.
This V5 addresse Russell's and Paolo's reviews, namely :
- Error out when encountering an unknown SPEED_XXX setting
It prints an error and fails to initialize phylib. I've tested by
introducing a dummy 1.6T speed, I guess it's only a matter of time
before that actually happens :)
- Deal more gracefully with the fixed-link settings, keeping some level of
compatibility with what we had before by making sure we report a
single BaseT mode like before.
