Russell King b5b17e9d83 net: marvell: mvpp2: phylink requires the link interrupt
[ Upstream commit f3f2364ea14d1cf6bf966542f31eadcf178f1577 ]

phylink requires the MAC to report when its link status changes when
operating in inband modes.  Failure to report link status changes
means that phylink has no idea when the link events happen, which
results in either the network interface's carrier remaining up or
remaining permanently down.

For example, with a fiber module, if the interface is brought up and
link is initially established, taking the link down at the far end
will cut the optical power.  The SFP module's LOS asserts, we
deactivate the link, and the network interface reports no carrier.

When the far end is brought back up, the SFP module's LOS deasserts,
but the MAC may be slower to establish link.  If this happens (which
in my tests is a certainty) then phylink never hears that the MAC
has established link with the far end, and the network interface is
stuck reporting no carrier.  This means the interface is
non-functional.

Avoiding the link interrupt when we have phylink is basically not
an option, so remove the !port->phylink from the test.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
