The MC firmware gained recently a new command which can reconfigure the
running protocol on the underlying MAC. Add this new command which will
be used in the next patches in order to do a major reconfig on the
interface.

The dpmac_get_api_version command will be used in the next patches to
determine if the current firmware is capable or not to change the
Ethernet protocol running on the MAC.

Running kernel-doc over the dpaa2-eth driver generates a bunch of
warnings. Fix them up by removing code comments for macros which are
self-explanatory, respecting the kdoc format for macro documentation and
other small changes like describing the expected return values of
functions.

When a DPNI is connected to a MAC, export its associated counters.
Ethtool related functions are added in dpaa2_mac for returning the
number of counters, their strings and also their values.

The dpaa2-eth driver now has support for connecting to its associated
PHY device found through standard OF bindings.
This happens when the DPNI object (that the driver probes on) gets
connected to a DPMAC. When that happens, the device tree is looked up by
the DPMAC ID, and the associated PHY bindings are found.
The old logic of handling the net device's link state by hand still
needs to be kept, as the DPNI can be connected to other devices on the
bus than a DPMAC: other DPNI, DPSW ports, etc. This logic is only
engaged when there is no DPMAC (and therefore no phylink instance)
attached.
The MC firmware support multiple type of DPMAC links: TYPE_FIXED,
TYPE_PHY. The TYPE_FIXED mode does not require any DPMAC management from
Linux side, and as such, the driver will not handle such a DPMAC.
Although PHYLINK typically handles SFP cages and in-band AN modes, for
the moment the driver only supports the RGMII interfaces found on the
LX2160A. Support for other modes will come later.
