[PATCH net-next 0/2] net: phy: remove parameter new_link from phy_mac_interrupt()

I see two issues with parameter new_link:

1. It's not needed. See also phy_interrupt(), works w/o this parameter.
   phy_mac_interrupt sets the state to PHY_CHANGELINK and triggers the
   state machine which then calls phy_read_status. And phy_read_status
   updates the link state.

2. phy_mac_interrupt is used in interrupt context and getting the link
   state may sleep (at least when having to access the PHY registers
   via MDIO bus).

bcmgenet driver so far is the only user, therefore changing the API
has minimal impact.
