net: enetc: add a mini driver for the Integrated Endpoint Register Block

The NXP ENETC is a 4-port Ethernet controller which 'smells' to
operating systems like 4 distinct PCIe PFs with SR-IOV, each PF having
its own driver instance, but in fact there are some hardware resources
which are shared between all ports, like for example the 256 KB SRAM
FIFO between the MACs and the Host Transfer Agent which DMAs frames to
DRAM.

To hide the stuff that cannot be neatly exposed per port, the hardware
designers came up with this idea of having a dedicated register block
which is supposed to be populated by the bootloader, and contains
everything configuration-related: MAC addresses, FIFO partitioning, etc.

When a port is reset using PCIe Function Level Reset, its defaults are
transferred from the IERB configuration. Most of the time, the settings
made through the IERB are read-only in the port's memory space (if they
are even visible), so they cannot be modified at runtime.

Linux doesn't have any advanced FIFO partitioning requirements at all,
but when reading through the hardware manual, it became clear that, even
though there are many good 'recommendations' for default values, many of
them were not actually put in practice on LS1028A. So we end up with a
default configuration that:

(a) does not have enough TX and RX byte credits to support the max MTU
    of 9600 (which the Linux driver claims already) properly (at full speed)
(b) allows the FIFO to be overrun with RX traffic, potentially
    overwriting internal data structures.

The last part sounds a bit catastrophic, but it isn't. Frames are
supposed to transit the FIFO for a very short time, but they can
actually accumulate there under 2 conditions:

(a) there is very severe congestion on DRAM memory, or
(b) the RX rings visible to the operating system were configured for
    lossless operation, and they just ran out of free buffers to copy
    the frame to. This is what is used to put backpressure onto the MAC
    with flow control.

So since ENETC has not supported flow control thus far, RX FIFO overruns
were never seen with Linux. But with the addition of flow control, we
should configure some registers to prevent this from happening. What we
are trying to protect against are bad actors which continue to send us
traffic despite the fact that we have signaled a PAUSE condition. Of
course we can't be lossless in that case, but it is best to configure
the FIFO to do tail dropping rather than letting it overrun.

So in a nutshell, this driver is a fixup for all the IERB default values
that should have been but aren't.

The IERB configuration needs to be done _before_ the PFs are enabled.
So every PF searches for the presence of the "fsl,ls1028a-enetc-ierb"
node in the device tree, and if it finds it, it "registers" with the
IERB, which means that it requests the IERB to fix up its default
values. This is done through -EPROBE_DEFER. The IERB driver is part of
the fsl_enetc module, but is technically a platform driver, since the
IERB is a good old fashioned MMIO region, as opposed to ENETC ports
which pretend to be PCIe devices.

The driver was already configuring ENETC_PTXMBAR (FIFO allocation for
TX) because due to an omission, TXMBAR is a read/write register in the
PF memory space. But the manual is quite clear that the formula for this
should depend upon the TX byte credits (TXBCR). In turn, the TX byte
credits are only readable/writable through the IERB. So if we want to
ensure that the TXBCR register also has a value that is correct and in
line with TXMBAR, there is simply no way this can be done from the PF
driver, access to the IERB is needed.

I could have modified U-Boot to fix up the IERB values, but that is
quite undesirable, as old U-Boot versions are likely to be floating
around for quite some time from now.
