Subject: [net-next PATCH v6 3/3] net: phy: add support for PHY package MMD read/write

Some PHY in PHY package may require to read/write MMD regs to correctly
configure the PHY package.

Add support for these additional required function in both lock and no
lock variant.

It's assumed that the entire PHY package is either C22 or C45. We use
C22 or C45 way of writing/reading to mmd regs based on the passed phydev
whether it's C22 or C45.

- Improve function description
Changes v4:
- Drop function comments in header file
Changes v3:
- Move in phy-core.c from phy.h

I don't recall what has been said in previous postings of this, but
introducing new helpers without an example user is normally frowned
upon. The lack of cover message for this three patch series also
doesn't help (the cover message could explain why there's no users
being proposed with this addition of helpers.)

These are prereq for the qca803x PHY driver and the PHY package series.

I can move this single patch in those series, but it was suggested to
move these simple change to a separate patch to lower the patch number
since they were orthogonal to the PHY package series proposal.

... so adding a cover message (your series in general seem to lack
those) would be a good idea to explain that.

I tend to use cover letters only for big series, sorry for not being
very clear about this. Soo should I detach this from here or it O.K.?

FWIW in netdev the rule of thumb is "if there's more than 2 patches,
there's probably extra context". Even the 2 patch exception for cover
letters is mostly for when people post code + test, as two separate
patches. Cover letter stating that you have a series for xyz
pending, which will need this, seems like a straightforward ask..
