This won't work when PCS_LYNX is a loadable module and
STMMAC is built-in. I think we should just select PCS_LYNX
unconditionally from stmmac even if no front-end driver
using it is enabled.

I tried to come up with a way to move the dependency into
the altera specific front-end, but couldn't find an obvious
or simple way to do this.

Having a proper abstraction for PCS drivers instead of
directly calling into exported driver symbols might help
here, but that would add complexity elsewhere.

Oops, you're right, forgot about that case.
What about using IS_REACHABLE() instead?
No, that won't work either, as DWMAC_SOCFPGA can be modular,
with STMMAC builtin.

It would work because of the 'select PCS_LYNX' below DWMAC_SOCFPGA,
but I think that's too fragile and would easily break when another
dwmac front-end starts using PCS_LYNX without have the same select
statement. I think we should always avoid IS_REACHABLE().

That was my first thought, but it won't work, as DWMAC_SOCFPGA=m
causes PCS_LYNX=m, while main STMMAC can still be builtin.

Patches are in progress to resolve this issue (on netdev), please be
patient.

Even better would be to check netdev for the patches, review them, and
give them a test, and provide feedback, which will help get them
merged.

Latest version can be found here:
