This patch provides support for the presence of a KR redriver chip in
between the device PCS and an external PHY. When a redriver chip is
present the device must perform clause 73 auto-negotiation in order to
set the redriver chip for the downstream connection.

Prepare for the future introduction of clause 37 auto-negotiation by
updating the current auto-negotiation related functions to identify
them as clause 73 functions. Move interrupt enablement to the
enable/disable auto-negotiation functions. Update what will be common
routines to check for the current type of AN and process accordingly.

Prepare the code to be able to work with more than one type of phy by
adding additional callable functions into the phy interface and removing
phy specific settings/functions from non-phy related files.
