Use page_pool and it's DMA mapping capabilities for Rx buffers instead
of netdev/napi_alloc_frag()
Although this will result in a slight performance penalty on small sized
packets (~10%) the use of the API will allow to easily add XDP support.
The penalty won't be visible in network testing i.e ipef/netperf etc, it
only happens during raw packet drops.
Furthermore we intend to add recycling capabilities on the API
in the future. Once the recycling is added the performance penalty will
go away.
The only 'real' penalty is the slightly increased memory usage, since we
now allocate a page per packet instead of the amount of bytes we need +
skb metadata (difference is roughly 2kb per packet).
With a minimum of 4BG of RAM on the only SoC that has this NIC the
extra memory usage is negligible (a bit more on 64K pages)

This patch adds support for specifying system controller that configures
phy-mode setting.
According to the DT property "phy-mode", it's necessary to configure the
controller, which is used to choose the settings of the MAC suitable,
for example, mdio pin connections, internal clocks, and so on.
Supported phy-modes are SoC-dependent. The driver allows phy-mode to set
"internal" if the SoC has a built-in PHY, and {"mii", "rmii", "rgmii"}
if the SoC supports each mode. So we have to check whether the phy-mode
is valid or not.
This adds the following features for each SoC:
- check whether the SoC supports the specified phy-mode
- configure the controller accroding to phy-mode
The DT property accepts one argument to distinguish them for multiple MAC
instances.
