The Ethernet controllers have a good number of generic options that can be
needed in a device tree. Add a YAML schemas for those.

An SFP module may have a link up/down status pin which can be
connection to a GPIO line of the host. Add support for reading such an
GPIO in the fixed_phy driver.

Some Ethernet MACs have a "fixed link", and are not connected to a
normal MDIO-managed PHY device. For those situations, a Device Tree
binding allows to describe a "fixed link" using a special PHY node.
This patch adds:
* A documentation for the fixed PHY Device Tree binding.
* An of_phy_is_fixed_link() function that an Ethernet driver can call
on its PHY phandle to find out whether it's a fixed link PHY or
not. It should typically be used to know if
of_phy_register_fixed_link() should be called.
* An of_phy_register_fixed_link() function that instantiates the
fixed PHY into the PHY subsystem, so that when the driver calls
of_phy_connect(), the PHY device associated to the OF node will be
found.
These two additional functions also support the old fixed-link Device
Tree binding used on PowerPC platforms, so that ultimately, the
network device drivers for those platforms could be converted to use
of_phy_is_fixed_link() and of_phy_register_fixed_link() instead of
of_phy_connect_fixed_link(), while keeping compatibility with their
respective Device Tree bindings.
