First, if a device tree specifies a "pcs-handle" but no select_pcs() callback is provided by the platform driver, the created XPCS is never used. The phylink framework requires select_pcs() to actually return the PCS to the core, so the pcs-handle property becomes effectively useless without the matching callback. This is confusing for developers who expect that specifying a pcs-handle in their device tree should be sufficient to enable the PCS. Second, and more critically, when stmmac_pcs_setup() fails to create an XPCS (either because no pcs-handle is present and no pcs_mask is configured), it falls through to the else branch and leaves priv->hw->xpcs as NULL. This will silently override any XPCS that a platform driver may have already set up during its own initialization, for example in a pcs_init() callback or during probe. The platform driver has no way to prevent this override because the common code runs unconditionally after the platform-specific initialization. After commit 93f84152e4ae ("net: stmmac: clean up stmmac_mac_select_pcs()"), the common code no longer falls back to priv->hw->phylink_pcs if select_pcs() is not set. This change reinforces that each platform must manage its own PCS life cycle explicitly, but the XPCS creation code in stmmac_pcs_setup() was not updated to match this new expectation, leaving a gap where platform drivers have no clean way to take control of XPCS creation. Address all of these issues by introducing pcs_init() and pcs_exit() callbacks in plat_stmmacenet_data. These callbacks give platform drivers full control over when and how the XPCS is created, configured, and destroyed. The common stmmac_pcs_setup() and stmmac_pcs_clean() functions are simplified to just call these callbacks, removing the confusing and error-prone XPCS creation logic from the common code. Platforms that do not need an XPCS simply leave the callbacks as NULL and no change in behavior occurs. Platforms that do need an XPCS can now create it with the exact configuration they require, including wrapping it with custom phylink_pcs_ops when necessary. Existing platform drivers (intel, rzn1, socfpga) are updated to use the new callbacks by moving their XPCS creation and cleanup logic into pcs_init() and pcs_exit(). In their pcs_exit() implementations, the pointer to the destroyed PCS is explicitly set to NULL to avoid dangling pointer references.
