net: phy: Cleanup the Edge-Rate feature in Microsemi PHYs.
Edge-Rate cleanup include the following: - Updated device tree bindings documentation for edge-rate - The edge-rate is now specified as a "slowdown", meaning that it is now being specified as positive values instead of negative (both documentation and implementation wise). - Only explicitly documented values for "vsc8531,vddmac" and "vsc8531,edge-slowdown" are accepted by the device driver. - Deleted include/dt-bindings/net/mscc-phy-vsc8531.h as it was not needed. - Read/validate devicetree settings in probe instead of init Signed-off-by: Allan W. Nielsen <allan.nielsen@microsemi.com> Signed-off-by: Raju Lakkaraju <raju.lakkaraju@microsemi.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Edge rate sets the drive strength of the MAC

- strength will affect the edge rate of the output
- signal. The goal of this setting is to help
- reduce electrical emission (EMI) by being able
- to reprogram drive strength and in effect slow
- down the edge rate if desired. Table 1 shows the
