Add mxl862xx_smdio_read() and mxl862xx_smdio_write() for clause-22
SMDIO register access. MCUboot rescue mode only exposes clause-22
registers; the existing clause-45 MMD interface is unavailable during
firmware transfer. The MDIO bus lock is held per-transaction (not
across polls) so that SB PDI polling during flash erase does not
starve other MDIO users.
What other MDIO users are there? It sounds like once the switch is in
rescue mode, switch management is dead. So how can there be users?
