ibm_newemac: Introduce mal_has_feature

Browse source

There are some PowerPC SoCs that do odd things with the MAL handling.  In
order to accommodate them, we need to introduce a feature mechanism that is
similar to the existing emac_has_feature function.

This adds a feature variable to the mal_instance structure, and adds a
mal_has_feature function.  Two features are defined and are guarded
by Kconfig options that are selected by the affected platforms.

MAL_FTR_CLEAR_ICINSTAT is used for platforms that need to clear the
interrupt bits in the ICINTSTAT SDR for txeob/rxeob.  This is common
on MAL implementations that have interrupt coalescing.

MAL_FTR_COMMON_ERR_INT is used for platforms that have SERR, TXDE,
and RXDE OR'd into a single interrupt bit.
