Christian Marangi 627cd79e1c generic: update pending PCS patch with .fill_available_pcs OP
While implementing standalone PCS support for DSA, it was found that making
the MAC driver passing the available_pcs array is limiting and problematic
for memory handling and allocation. To better handle this, change the logic
and make phylink allocate the struct and make the MAC driver implement a
function in phylink_config .fill_available_pcs to fill the PCS array.

Update the Airoha and Mediatek driver to reflect this new implementation.

Subject: [PATCH 5/7] net: phylink: support late PCS provider attach
Add support in phylink for late PCS provider attach to a phylink
instance. This works by creating a global notifier for the PCS provider
and making each phylink instance that makes use of fwnode subscribe to
this notifier.
The PCS notifier will emit the event FWNODE_PCS_PROVIDER_ADD every time
a new PCS provider is added.
phylink will then react to this event and will call the new function
fwnode_phylink_pcs_get_from_fwnode() that will check if the PCS fwnode
provided by the event is present in the phy-handle property of the
phylink instance.
If a related PCS is found, then such PCS is added to the phylink
instance PCS list.
Then we link the PCS to the phylink instance if it's not disable and we
refresh the supported interfaces of the phylink instance.
Finally we check if we are in a major_config_failed scenario and trigger
an interface reconfiguration in the next phylink resolve.
If link was previously torn down due to removal of PCS, the link will be
established again as the PCS came back and is not available to phylink.
