To connect two ports of the same configuration (MDI to MDI or
MDI-X to MDI-X) with a 10/100/1000 Mbit/s connection, an
Ethernet crossover cable is needed to cross over the transmit
and receive signals in the cable, so that they are matched at
the connector level.
When connecting an MDI port to an MDI-X port a straight through
cable is used while to connect two MDI ports or two MDI-X ports
a crossover cable must be used. Conventionally MDI is used on end
devices while MDI-X is used on hubs and switches
Auto MDI-X automatically detects the required cable connection
type and configures the connection appropriately, removing the
need for crossover cables to interconnect switches or connecting
PCs peer-to-peer.

PHY drivers should be able to rely on the caller of {get,set}_tunable to
have acquired the PHY device mutex, in order to both serialize against
concurrent calls of these functions, but also against PHY state machine
changes. All ethtool PHY-level functions do this, except
{get,set}_tunable, so we make them consistent here as well.
We need to update the Microsemi PHY driver in the same commit to avoid
introducing either deadlocks, or lack of proper locking.
Fixes: 968ad9da7e0e ("ethtool: Implements ETHTOOL_PHY_GTUNABLE/ETHTOOL_PHY_STUNABLE")
Fixes: 310d9ad57ae0 ("net: phy: Add downshift get/set support in Microsemi PHYs driver")

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

Wake-on-LAN (WoL) is an Ethernet networking standard that allows
a computer/device to be turned on or awakened by a network message.
VSC8531 PHY can support this feature configure by driver set function.
WoL status get by driver get function.
Tested on Beaglebone Black with VSC 8531 PHY.

Edge-rate:
As system and networking speeds increase, a signal's output transition,
also know as the edge rate or slew rate (V/ns), takes on greater importance
because high-speed signals come with a price. That price is an assortment of
interference problems like ringing on the line, signal overshoot and
undershoot, extended signal settling times, crosstalk noise, transmission
line reflections, false signal detection by the receiving device and
electromagnetic interference (EMI) -- all of which can negate the potential
gains designers are seeking when they try to increase system speeds through
the use of higher performance logic devices. The fact is, faster signaling
edge rates can cause a higher level of electrical noise or other type of
interference that can actually lead to slower line speeds and lower maximum
system frequencies. This parameter allow the board designers to change the
driving strange, and thereby change the EMI behavioral.
Edge-rate parameters (vddmac, edge-slowdown) get from Device Tree.

All the review comments updated and resending for review.
This is MAC interface feature.
Microsemi PHY can support RGMII, RMII or GMII/MII interface between MAC and PHY.
MAC-IF function program the right value based on Device tree configuration.

function vsc85xx_ack_interrupt is returning an uninitialized
