[PATCH RFC net-next 1/5] net: stmmac: call phylink_start() and phylink_stop() in XDP functions

[Russell King (Oracle)]

Phylink does not permit drivers to mess with the netif carrier, as
this will de-synchronise phylink with the MAC driver. Moreover,
setting and clearing the TE and RE bits via stmmac_mac_set() in this
path is also wrong as the link may not be up.

Replace the netif_carrier_on(), netif_carrier_off() and
stmmac_mac_set() calls with the appropriate phylink_start() and
phylink_stop() calls, thereby allowing phylink to manage the netif
carrier and TE/RE bits through the .mac_link_up() and .mac_link_down()
methods.

Note that RE should only be set after the DMA is ready to avoid the
receive FIFO between the MAC and DMA blocks overflowing, so
phylink_start() needs to be placed after DMA has been started.
