of: provide a binding for fixed link PHYs

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.

Fixed link Device Tree binding
------------------------------
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".
Such a fixed link situation is described by creating a 'fixed-link'
sub-node of the Ethernet MAC device node, with the following
properties:
* 'speed' (integer, mandatory), to indicate the link speed. Accepted
values are 10, 100 and 1000
* 'full-duplex' (boolean, optional), to indicate that full duplex is
used. When absent, half duplex is assumed.
* 'pause' (boolean, optional), to indicate that pause should be
enabled.
* 'asym-pause' (boolean, optional), to indicate that asym_pause should
be enabled.
Example:
ethernet@0 {
...
fixed-link {
speed = <1000>;
full-duplex;
};
...
};
