This series fixes qca8k MDIO error-handling bugs found by code
inspection and the Sashiko review of v1 [1]. I am not aware of reports
of actual MDIO failures, so v3 targets net-next without Fixes tags, as
Andrew requested [2].

The patches propagate register and PHY access errors, skip MASTER_EN
cleanup after a failed page select, invalidate the uncertain page cache,
and return management Ethernet busy-wait errors so MDIO fallback can run.
They apply directly to net-next; the separate qca8k MTU series depends on
the write-error propagation provided here.

Here is the summary with links:

  - [net-next,v3,2/3] net: dsa: qca8k: do not clear MASTER_EN after a failed page select
    https://git.kernel.org/netdev/net-next/c/2fc23f832e30
  - [net-next,v3,3/3] net: dsa: qca8k: fail mgmt Ethernet MDIO access on busy wait errors

You are awesome, thank you!
