Remove phylink_state's an_enabled member

Now that all the fixes and correctness patches have been merged, it is
time to switch the two users that make use of .an_enabled to check the
Autoneg bit in the advertising mask, and finally remove the
.an_enabled member.

The first two patches remove the last uses of .an_enabled, which are
in DPAA2 and XPCS. The final patch removes the member.

When setting the XPS value of a TX queue, warn the user once if the
index of the queue is greater than the number of allocated TX queues.

Previously, this scenario went uncaught. In the best case, it resulted
in unnecessary allocations. In the worst case, it resulted in
out-of-bounds memory references through calls to `netdev_get_tx_queue(
dev, index)`. Therefore, it is important to inform the user but not
worth returning an error and risk downing the netdevice.

Add CPSWxG SGMII support for J7200 and J721E

This series adds support to configure the CPSW Ethernet Switch in SGMII
mode, using the am65-cpsw-nuss driver. SGMII mode is supported by the
CPSWxG instances on TI's J7200 and J721E SoCs. Thus, SGMII mode is added
in the list of extra_modes for the appropriate compatibles corresponding
to the aforementioned SoCs.

Additionally, the method of setting the supported interface via struct
"phylink_config" is simplified by converting the IF/ELSE statements to
SWITCH statements.

When compound pages are enabled, although the mm layer still
returns an array of page pointers, a subset (or all) of them
may have the same page head since a max 180kb skb can span 2
hugepages if it is on the boundary, be a mix of pages and 1 hugepage,

on all page pointers, use page length arithmetic to only call page
head when referencing a known different page head to avoid touching
a cold cacheline.

When the CPTS clock is synced/adjusted by running linuxptp (ptp4l/phc2sys),
it will cause the TSN EST schedule to drift away over time. This is because
the schedule is driven by the EstF periodic counter whose pulse length is
defined in ref_clk cycles and it does not automatically sync to CPTS clock.
   _______
 _|
  ^
  expected cycle start time boundary
   _______________
 _|_|___|_|

  EstF drifted away -> direction

To fix it, the same PPM adjustment has to be applied to EstF as done to the
PHC CPTS clock, in order to correct the TSN EST cycle length and keep them
in sync.

warning in clang aims to catch these at compile time, which reveals:

  drivers/net/ethernet/pasemi/pasemi_mac.c:1665:21: error: incompatible function pointer types initializing 'netdev_tx_t (*)(struct sk_buff *, struct net_device *)' (aka 'enum netdev_tx (*)(struct sk_buff *, struct net_device *)') with an expression of type 'int (struct sk_buff *, struct net_device *)' [-Werror,-Wincompatible-function-pointer-types-strict]
          .ndo_start_xmit         = pasemi_mac_start_tx,
                                    ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  1 error generated.

->ndo_start_xmit() in 'struct net_device_ops' expects a return type of
'netdev_tx_t', not 'int'. Adjust the return type of
pasemi_mac_start_tx() to match the prototype's to resolve the warning.
While PowerPC does not currently implement support for kCFI, it could in
the future, which means this warning becomes a fatal CFI failure at run
time.

The Geneve encapsulation, as defined in RFC 8926, has a Protocol Type
field, which states the Ethertype of the payload appearing after the
Geneve header.

Commit 435fe1c0 ("net: geneve: support IPv4/IPv6 as inner protocol")
introduced a new IFLA_GENEVE_INNER_PROTO_INHERIT flag that allowed the
use of other Ethertypes than Ethernet. However, it did not get rid of a
restriction that prohibits receiving payloads other than Ethernet,
instead the commit white-listed additional Ethertypes, IPv4 and IPv6.

This patch removes this restriction, making it possible to receive any
Ethertype as a payload, if the IFLA_GENEVE_INNER_PROTO_INHERIT flag is
set.

The restriction was set in place back in commit 0b5e8b8e
("net: Add Geneve tunneling protocol driver"), which implemented a
protocol layer driver for Geneve to be used with Open vSwitch. The
relevant discussion about introducing the Ethertype white-list can be
found here:

Yes, it is temporary. Currently OVS only handles Ethernet packets but
this restriction can be lifted once we have a consumer that is capable
of handling other protocols.

This white-list was then ported to a generic Geneve netdevice in commit
371bd106 ("geneve: Consolidate Geneve functionality in single
module."). Preserving the Ethertype white-list at this point made sense,
as the Geneve device could send out only Ethernet payloads anyways.

However, now that the Geneve netdevice supports encapsulating other
payloads with IFLA_GENEVE_INNER_PROTO_INHERIT and we have a consumer
capable of other protocols, it seems appropriate to lift the restriction
and allow any Geneve payload to be received.
