<content type='text'>
Move all the MDIO drivers and multiplexers into drivers/net/mdio.  The
mdio core is however left in the phy directory, due to mutual
dependencies between the MDIO core and the PHY core.

Take this opportunity to sort the Kconfig based on the menuconfig
strings, and move the multiplexers to the end with a separating
comment.

v2:
Fix typo in commit message

<title>net: phy: mscc-miim: read poll when high resolution timers are disabled</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a021ada2b7a3a79394ed2f476ec7615a184bb488</id>
<content type='text'>
The driver uses a read polling mechanism to check the status of the MDIO
bus, to know if it is ready to accept next commands. This polling
mechanism uses usleep_delay() under the hood between reads which is fine
as long as high resolution timers are enabled. Otherwise the delays will
end up to be much longer than expected.

This patch fixes this by using udelay() under the hood when
CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS isn't enabled. This increases CPU usage.

<id>urn:sha1:d9c6de35e051c17474ec8a1fe2fdb8cd2b6f1a87</id>
<content type='text'>
The MSCC MIIM MDIO driver uses a waiting logic to wait for the MDIO bus
to be ready to accept next commands. It does so by polling the BUSY
status bit which indicates the MDIO bus has completed all pending
operations. This can take time, and the controller supports writing the
next command as soon as there are no pending commands (which happens
while the MDIO bus is busy completing its current command).

This patch implements this improved logic by adding an helper to poll
the PENDING status bit, and by adjusting where we should wait for the
bus to not be busy or to not be pending.

readl_poll_timeout already returns -ETIMEDOUT if the condition isn't
satisfied, there's no need to check again the condition after calling
it. Remove the redundant timeout check.

The MSCC MIIM MDIO driver uses delays to read poll a status register. I
made multiple tests on a Ocelot PCS120 platform which led me to reduce
those delays. The delay in between which the polling function is allowed
to sleep is reduced from 100us to 50us which in almost all cases is a
good value to succeed at the first retry. The overall delay is also
lowered as the prior value was really way to high, 10000us is large
enough.

A number of drivers have the following pattern:

if (np)
	of_mdiobus_register()
else
	mdiobus_register()

which the implementation of of_mdiobus_register() now takes care of.
Remove that pattern in drivers that strictly adhere to it.

Add a driver for the Microsemi MII Management controller (MIIM) found on
Microsemi SoCs.
On Ocelot, there are two controllers, one is connected to the internal
PHYs, the other one can communicate with external PHYs.
