[PATCH net-next v2 7/7] net: stmmac: deprecate "snps,en-tx-lpi-clockgating" property

[Russell King (Oracle)]

Whether the MII transmit clock can be stopped is primarily a property
of the PHY (there is a capability bit that should be checked first.)
Whether the MAC is capable of stopping the transmit clock is a separate
issue, but this is already handled by the core DesignWare MAC code.

Therefore, snps,en-tx-lpi-clockgating is technically incorrect, and
this commit adds a warning should a DT be encountered with the property
present.

However, we keep backwards compatibility.
