[FEATURE: #317] WRS-FL: modify wrs_linux_defconfig and add driver file for USB-to-SFP management port

A kernel module file asix.ko and a tool ioctl will be generated.
After insmod the asix.ko, a new network interface, eth1, will be found.

Since driver reads periodically MDIO registers (timer function to check
link state) and HAL reads periodically LPDC MDIO registers (through
ioctl call) it happened once in a while that ioctl read operation would be
interleaved with timer function. As a result HAL would get the value
read from a different MDIO register than the one requested. This had
caused occasional link restarts on LPDC ports.

the update includes
- some new registers that were added long time ago to HDL but
  the headers in SW were not updated
- Low Phase Drift configuration in MDIO/PCS and EP regs

The previous fix didn't solved completelly this issue: Negative nano WR
time adjustement generate a big jump of the monotonic clock used in
PPSI.
The current fix solves this issue.

baujc authored 6 years ago and Adam Wujek committed 5 years ago

The WR time adjustment was not taken into account in the driver. The
side effect was a big jump sometime of the monotonic clock used in PPSI
for the calculation of the timeouts. The side effect was that many
timeouts were firing too early.
The driver registration take now into account the adjustment and also
the calculation of the offset in the read() call.

Actually, this is not what I want. I would like to just use an IRQ
resource with the correct IRQ number. What I want is to hide the IRQ
domain knowledge elsewhere. For instance, in the wrs_device module
that register all our devices. But, since I have to update the kernel
with the least number of changes I will leave this for the future.

Many mach headers has been moved out of scope. Of course they are still
accessible by in an ugly way. Here I'm following the ugly way in order
to get something working.

What to do with this headers, perhaps, needs a discussion. I personally
think that we need our local headers with hardware definitions. The
reason is that we saw that in future kernel version some of these
headers complitely disappear. The hardware definitions never change so
we can safely copy them and remove a dependency with an external project.

Instead of using clocksource_register() we use
clocksource_register_hz() as suggested

From kernel patch c7f798e3722610d486e951f04bbc00b6ba124d62
    clocksource: Get rid of clocksource_calc_mult_shift()

    No one is using this, so encourage the use of
    clocksource_register_hz/khz(), and drop this helper.

Today it is not really important to do this because all our modules are
within the project itself. But, at somepoint, we may use submodules
in order to integrate drivers from external sources; so, we need to export
our default values because we will not have control over the other projects

The tool wrs_port_tx_control is not needed anymore, its functionality (putting
the link down) is available by performing:
ifconfig <port> down

FIXME: I know that this is not the place to add these definitions
    they should be added/fixed in the .wb files.

FIXME:
- fixed #ifndef statement, the dash makes the compiler ignore the MDIO_WB
  part, which does not allow the file to be #included together with the
  endpoint-regs.h file. This should be done in the .wb file.

FIXME:
- added register address constants. This should be done in the .wb file

Note: I have no idea how to do this, someone who knows could probably fix
    the issues raised here.
