Jakub Kicinski c6142e1913 Merge branch '10g-qxgmii-for-aqr412c-felix-dsa-and-lynx-pcs-driver'
Vladimir Oltean says:

====================
10G-QXGMII for AQR412C, Felix DSA and Lynx PCS driver

Introduce the first user of the "10g-qxgmii" phy-mode, since its
introduction from commit 5dfabcdd76 ("dt-bindings: net:
ethernet-controller: add 10g-qxgmii mode").

The arch/arm64/boot/dts/freescale/fsl-ls1028a-qds-13bb.dtso already
exists upstream, but has phy-mode = "usxgmii", which comes from the fact
that the AQR412(C) PHY does not distinguish between the two modes.
Yet, the distinction is crucial for the upcoming SerDes driver for the
LS1028A platform.

The series is comprised of:
- preliminary patches to the Lynx PCS and Felix DSA driver which accept
  the phy-mode and treat it like "usxgmii"
- an ad-hoc whitelisting mechanism in the Aquantia PHY driver based on
  firmware version, which was agreed upon with Marvell, and which serves
  as "detection"
- in-band auto-negotiation capability reporting and configuration. This
  makes sure this feature is enabled in the PHY, because the Lynx PCS
  only works with USXGMII/10G-QXGMII in-band autoneg enabled.

Notably, it lacks a device tree update, which will come later, but
should not be strictly necessary. The expectation is for the Aquantia
PHY driver to pick up "10g-qxgmii" with existing device trees as well,
which it does, except for the slightly confusing "configuring for
inband/usxgmii link mode" initial message. This changes to "configuring
for inband/10g-qxgmii link mode" once phylink gets a chance to pick up
the phydev->interface in its pl->link_config.interface.

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.
