Petr Oros 6f9d8393c9 ice: fix SMA and U.FL pin state changes affecting paired pin
SMA and U.FL pins share physical signal paths in pairs (SMA1/U.FL1 and
SMA2/U.FL2) controlled by the PCA9575 GPIO expander.  Each pair can
only have one active pin at a time: SMA1 output and U.FL1 output share
the same CGU output, SMA2 input and U.FL2 input share the same CGU
input.  The PCA9575 register bits determine which connector in each
pair owns the signal path.

The driver does not account for this pairing in two places:

ice_dpll_ufl_pin_state_set() modifies PCA9575 bits and disables the
backing CGU pin without checking whether the U.FL pin is currently
active.  Disconnecting an already inactive U.FL pin flips bits that
the paired SMA pin relies on, breaking its connection.

ice_dpll_sma_direction_set() does not propagate direction changes to
the paired U.FL pin.  For SMA2/U.FL2 the ICE_SMA2_UFL2_RX_DIS bit is
never managed, so U.FL2 stays disconnected after SMA2 switches to
output.  For both pairs the backing CGU pin of the U.FL side is never
enabled when a direction change activates it, so userspace sees the
pin as disconnected even though the routing is correct.

Fix by guarding the U.FL disconnect path against inactive pins and by
updating the paired U.FL pin fully on SMA direction changes: manage
ICE_SMA2_UFL2_RX_DIS for the SMA2/U.FL2 pair and enable the backing
CGU pin whenever the peer becomes active.
