Hi all,

This patch series replaces the existing PHYLIB integration with PHYLINK which
is a superior solution since we need to support a collection of fixed links,
integrated PHYs, SFP, non-pluggable SFPs etc.

I am expecting quite a lot of breakage, for a number of reasons:

- PHYLINK does not create a PHY device for fixed links (MLO_AN_FIXED), which
  means that user-facing port (not DSA, not CPU) need to be explicitly handled
  with phylink_mac_ops now

- only been able to test this on a limited number of platforms, and not the
  ZII devel B/C boards yet

Please test and report!
