Russell King (Oracle) 21d9ba5bc5 net: phylink: add PHY_F_RXC_ALWAYS_ON to PHY dev flags
Some MAC controllers (e.g. stmmac) require their connected PHY to
continuously provide a receive clock signal. This can cause issues in two
cases:

  1. The clock signal hasn't been started yet by the time the MAC driver
     initializes its hardware. This can make the initialization fail, as in
      the case of the rzn1 GMAC1 driver.
  2. The clock signal is cut during a power saving event. By the time the
     MAC is brought back up, the clock signal is still not active since
     phylink_start hasn't been called yet. This brings us back to case 1.

If a PHY driver reads this flag, it should ensure that the receive clock
signal is started as soon as possible, and that it isn't brought down when
the PHY goes into suspend.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
