[PATCH net-next v2 2/4] net: stmmac: call phylink_carrier_*() in XDP functions

["Russell King (Oracle)" <rmk+kernel@armlinux.org.uk>]

Phylink does not permit drivers to mess with the netif carrier, as
this will de-synchronise phylink with the MAC driver. Moreover,
setting and clearing the TE and RE bits via stmmac_mac_set() in this
path is also wrong as the link may not be up.

Replace the netif_carrier_on(), netif_carrier_off() and
stmmac_mac_set() calls with the appropriate phylink_carrier_block() and
phylink_carrier_unblock() calls, thereby allowing phylink to manage the
netif carrier and TE/RE bits through the .mac_link_up() and
.mac_link_down() methods.

This change will have the side effect of printing link messages to
the kernel log, even though the physical link hasn't changed state.
This matches the carrier state that userspace sees, which has always
"bounced".

Note that RE should only be set after the DMA is ready to avoid the
receive FIFO between the MAC and DMA blocks overflowing, so
phylink_start() needs to be placed after DMA has been started.
