changes v2:
- change names. Use MASTER_PREFERRED instead of MULTIPORT
- configure master/slave only on request. Default configuration can be
provided by PHY or eeprom
- status and configuration to the user space.

2.26.1
The TJA11xx PHYs have a vendor specific Master/Slave configuration bit,
which is not compatible with IEEE 803.2-2018 spec for 100Base-T1
devices. So, provide a custom config_ange call back to solve this
problem.

2.26.1
This UAPI is needed for BroadR-Reach 100BASE-T1 devices. Due to lack of
auto-negotiation support, we needed to be able to configure the
MASTER-SLAVE role of the port manually or from an application in user
space.
The same UAPI can be used for 1000BASE-T or MultiGBASE-T devices to
force MASTER or SLAVE role. See IEEE 802.3-2018:
22.2.4.3.7 MASTER-SLAVE control register (Register 9)
22.2.4.3.8 MASTER-SLAVE status register (Register 10)
40.5.2 MASTER-SLAVE configuration resolution
45.2.1.185.1 MASTER-SLAVE config value (1.2100.14)
45.2.7.10 MultiGBASE-T AN control 1 register (Register 7.32)
The MASTER-SLAVE role affects the clock configuration:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When the PHY is configured as MASTER, the PMA Transmit function shall
source TX_TCLK from a local clock source. When configured as SLAVE, the
PMA Transmit function shall source TX_TCLK from the clock recovered from
data stream provided by MASTER.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Since some clock or link related issues are only reproducible in a
specific MASTER-SLAVE-role, MAC and PHY configuration, it is beneficial
to provide generic (not 100BASE-T1 specific) interface to the user space
for configuration flexibility and trouble shooting.

You had me confused for a while. You are packing multiple things into
master_slave_get. Some bits are configuration, some are current
state. I don't like this. I think this is so you can shoe-horn this
into the existing IOCTL API? There are limited spare bytes?
Maybe we should not support this via the IOCTL, only the netlink
ethtool?
