Detect the link status on the w5500 using the Link Status bit from the
PHY Configuration register (PHYCFGR).
On w5100/w5200, which lack this register, .get_link is not
implemented and the carrier state is not reported.
Add an optional interrupt, wired to the LINKLED pin of the w5500, to
detect link status changes with a read of the PHYCFGR register and
update of the carrier state with netif_carrier_on|off.
If this interrupt is not set in the DT binding, only .get_link can be
used to get the carrier state. The interrupt handler and the PHYCFGR
register read are synchronized using a mutex.
The carrier state (netif_carrier_on|off) is not called anymore on
w5100/w5200 or w5500 without the link irq.
Make sure that the netdev is registered last in the probe function so
no operation can be performed before the probing is finished. dev_name
is now used instead of netdev_name.
Commit dacf281771a9 ("w5100: remove unused gpio link detection")
dropped the link_gpio/link_irq handling on the grounds that no
devicetree user passed a "link" gpio at the time and that it used the
old gpio interface.
This isn't a plain revert of that removal: link detection is now done
using a second interrupt rather than a gpio with a documented DT binding.

v8:
- Add myself in the MAINTAINERS file
- Address Sashiko reviews from online bot and locally run
- Add a mutex to synchronize the link state read and interrupt
- Return last known carrier state (netif_carrier_ok) in
w5500_get_link on SPI error or if the device is not present
- Only set ops .get_link on w5500
- Check the netif state, disable/enable the irq and re-check the
carrier state in w5100_restart
- Cancel the restart work on stop/suspend
- Only set carrier state to off in w5100_stop/suspend when a link
irq is present
- Warn on fwnode_irq_get errors for the link irq
- Free the main irq and flush queues before resetting the hardware
in w5100_remove
v7:
- Address Sashiko reviews
- Propagate spi read error to the caller
- Do not change the state of the carrier on SPI read error
- Enable the link IRQ before reading the PHYCFGR bit
- Call unregister_netdev before reset
- Update commit message
v6:
- Revert to the reviewed v4 version by Arnd Bergmann with a few
changes based on Sashiko's review
- Address Sashiko reviews
- call netif_carrier_off in open if there is no link_irq or get_link
returns false
- call register_netdev at the very end of probe
- call unregister_netdev before destroying work queue
- handle link irq probe defer error
- call netif_device_attach in resume before re enabling the link irq
- disable the link irq first in suspend
- log netif_err when PHYCFGR cannot be read
- enable link irq in open
- disable link irq in stop
- free irq and invalidate it in remove
v5:
- Address Sashiko review
- Read the link status register only on w5500 instead of checking
link_irq
- call netif_carrier_off on w5500 link status off in open
- enable/disable the link irq in open/stop
- enable/disable the link irq in resume/suspend
- handle link irq probe defer error
- register the netdev last
v4:
- Use directly an interrupt line instead of gpio -> irq
- Address Sashiko reviews
- drop devm_ on request_threaded_irq to avoid use after free
- disable/enable the link_irq in the suspend/resume
- only call netif_carrier_on|off if the link interrupt is present
v3:
- Use the Link Status bit of the PHY Configuration Register
- Use the LINKLED gpio binding for change detection only
v2:
- Use devm_request_threaded_irq instead of request_any_context_irq
- Use devm_gpiod_get_optional instead of gpiod_get_optional
- Call dev_err_probe on gpiod_to_irq failure
- Remove link_irq from priv
- Use a fixed string for the IRQ name
- Remove empty new lines
