    ice: introduce hw->phy_model for handling PTP PHY differences · be165746
    Jacob Keller authored
    The ice driver has PTP support which works across a couple of different
    device families. The device families each have different PHY hardware which
    have unique requirements for programming.
    
    Today, there is E810-based hardware, and E822-based hardware. To handle
    this, the driver checks the ice_is_e810() function to separate between the
    two existing families of hardware.
    
    Future development is going to add new hardware designs which have further
    unique requirements. To make this easier, introduce a phy_model field to
    the HW structure. This field represents what PHY model the current device
    has, and is used to allow distinguishing which logic a particular device
    needs.
    
    This will make supporting future upcoming hardware easier, by providing an
    obvious place to initialize the PHY model, and by already using switch/case
    statements instead of the previous if statements.
    
    Astute reviewers may notice that there are a handful of remaining checks
    for ice_is_e810() left in ice_ptp.c  These conflict with some other
    cleanup patches in development, and will be fixed in the near future.
