On some hardware using the DesignWare XPCS IP (e.g., RK3568 MAC side SGMII), the PCS does not automatically restart auto-negotiation when the link goes down and comes back up. Without an explicit ANRESTART, the link stays down forever. Add BMCR_ANRESTART in two places: 1. In xpcs_config_aneg_c37_sgmii(), when starting AN, set ANRESTART alongside ANENABLE to initiate a fresh negotiation. 2. In xpcs_get_state_c37_sgmii(), when link is down and AN completion is detected, clear the interrupt and trigger ANRESTART to restart the negotiation process. Propagate the return value of the restart so errors are not silently ignored. Update the comment in xpcs_config_aneg_c37_sgmii() to note that although the DesignWare databook says AN restart is not needed for MAC side SGMII, some implementations (e.g. Rockchip RK3568) require it to recover the link after a disconnect. This is not a fix for an existing mainline platform: the affected platform (RK3568 XPCS) is introduced later in the same series.
