This series adds proper SGMII support for the Rockchip RK3568 SoC
using the integrated Synopsys DesignWare XPCS, along with necessary
fixes and refactoring in the stmmac core and XPCS driver.

Motivation
==========
The RK3568 integrates a DW XPCS accessed via APB3 and connected to
a Naneng Combo SerDes PHY.  Several boards (e.g., Ariaboard
Photonicat) use this interface for Gigabit Ethernet.  However, the
current upstream stmmac driver does not support this configuration,
and the XPCS driver has issues in SGMII poll mode that cause the
link to be reported incorrectly.

This series addresses these issues by:
- Refactoring stmmac PCS lifetime management to allow platform drivers
  full control over PCS creation/destruction
- Fixing the XPCS driver's SGMII link recovery
- Adding a Rockchip XPCS platform glue driver and wiring it up in
  dwmac-rk

Series overview
===============

Generic:
  Patch 1: move XPCS lifetime management to platform drivers

PHY:
  Patch 2: DT binding for Naneng Combo PHY SGMII MAC selection
  Patch 3: implement the PHY SGMII MAC selection in driver

RK3568 XPCS/SGMII:
  Patch 4: DT binding for Rockchip RK3568 XPCS
  Patch 5: add XPCS and fixed-clock nodes to rk3568.dtsi
  Patch 6: add ANRESTART support for SGMII link recovery
  Patch 7: implement the Rockchip XPCS platform glue driver
  Patch 8: DT binding for Rockchip DWMAC PCS
  Patch 9: wire up SGMII support in dwmac-rk
  Patch 11: update MAINTAINERS

Board enablement:
  Patch 10: enable SGMII LAN port on Photonicat board

Changelog
=========

Changes since v7:

Patch 7 (net: pcs: xpcs: add Rockchip RK3568 platform glue driver)
- Fix a use-after-free window in xpcs_rk_create(): device_link_add()
  does not fail on a supplier that is unbinding (it creates the link in
  DL_STATE_SUPPLIER_UNBIND), so the drvdata could be freed between the
  link creation and the platform_get_drvdata() call. Read the drvdata
  under the supplier's device_lock with a device_is_bound() check, so
  a concurrent unbind is detected and the probe defers.
- Correct the comment above device_link_add(): the link does not keep
  the supplier alive by itself; device_lock() plus device_is_bound() is
  what protects the drvdata read.
- Change the Kconfig select to "select PM_GENERIC_DOMAINS if PM" so a
  COMPILE_TEST build with CONFIG_PM=n does not force PM_GENERIC_DOMAINS
  on against its own dependency.

Key design decisions
====================
- The stmmac core now delegates XPCS creation entirely to platform
  drivers via pcs_init/pcs_exit.  This is necessary because the
  generic XPCS creation logic would override any XPCS set up by the
  platform driver.

- The Rockchip XPCS driver creates a virtual MDIO bus over the APB3
  registers and implements address remapping.  The generic XPCS core
  handles all PCS configuration via phylink_pcs_ops.

- On RK3568 in SGMII mode, the MAC clock is fixed at 125 MHz and
  cannot be dynamically changed.  In-band mode is used, and the
  generic stmmac set_clk_tx_rate callback is disabled to prevent
  incorrect clock updates that would break RX.

- The SerDes and power domain are attached to the XPCS device tree
  node rather than the MAC node. This reflects the actual hardware
  topology and simplifies the dwmac-rk driver by keeping all PCS-related
  resources self-contained. It also prepares for possible future QSGMII
  support, where a single SerDes serves multiple MACs and would be
  more naturally managed under the XPCS node.

Testing
=======
Board: Ariaboard Photonicat (RK3568)
OS: Armbian (trixie)
Kernel: 6.18 (backports)
Result: The SGMII interface obtains an IP address, SSH works, and
        ping traffic passes without loss.

Notes
=====
- When testing out-band mode with set_clk_tx_rate, only 1000Mbps
  works on both TX/RX; 10/100Mbps only works on TX side.

Dependencies
============
None. All patches apply cleanly on top of torvalds master tree (v7.3).

Acknowledgments
===============
This work was inspired by and builds upon the excellent work of others:
- Serge Semin's Synopsys DesignWare XPCS platform driver (pcs-xpcs-plat.c)
- Clément Léger's Renesas MIIC driver (pcs-rzn1-miic.c)
- The Rockchip TRM and downstream OEM drivers

Thanks in advance,
