Merge branch 'broadcom-phy-wol'

====================
Support for Wake-on-LAN for Broadcom PHYs

This patch series adds support for Wake-on-LAN to the Broadcom PHY
driver. Specifically the BCM54210E/B50212E are capable of supporting
Wake-on-LAN using an external pin typically wired up to a system's GPIO.

These PHY operate a programmable Ethernet MAC destination address
comparator which will fire up an interrupt whenever a match is received.
Because of that, it was necessary to introduce patch #1 which allows the
PHY driver's ->suspend() routine to be called unconditionally. This is
necessary in our case because we need a hook point into the device
suspend/resume flow to enable the wake-up interrupt as late as possible.

Patch #2 adds support for the Broadcom PHY library and driver for
Wake-on-LAN proper with the WAKE_UCAST, WAKE_MCAST, WAKE_BCAST,
WAKE_MAGIC and WAKE_MAGICSECURE. Note that WAKE_FILTER is supportable,
however this will require further discussions and be submitted as a RFC
series later on.

Patch #3 updates the GENET driver to defer to the PHY for Wake-on-LAN if
the PHY supports it, thus allowing the MAC to be powered down to
conserve power.

Changes in v3:

- collected Reviewed-by tags
- explicitly use return 0 in bcm54xx_phy_probe() (Paolo)

Changes in v2:

- introduce PHY_ALWAYS_CALL_SUSPEND and only have the Broadcom PHY
  driver set this flag to minimize changes to the suspend flow to only
  drivers that need it

- corrected possibly uninitialized variable in bcm54xx_set_wakeup_irq
