net: fec: fix MDIO probing for some FEC hardware blocks

Browse source

Some (apparently older) versions of the FEC hardware block do not like
the MMFR register being cleared to avoid generation of MII events at
initialization time. The action of clearing this register results in no
future MII events being generated at all on the problem block. This means
the probing of the MDIO bus will find no PHYs.

Create a quirk that can be checked at the FECs MII init time so that
the right thing is done. The quirk is set as appropriate for the FEC
hardware blocks that are known to need this.
