The array-style fixed-link binding has been marked deprecated for more
than 10 yrs. See e.g. 91c1d980d601 ("Documentation: devicetree: add old
and deprecated 'fixed-link'") from 2014.

So migrate the remaining few in-kernel users of the old binding,
and remove for it.

v2:
- fix "Properties must precede subnodes" error in patches 1 and 2

Heiner Kallweit (5):
  arm64: dts: ls1043a-qds: switch to new fixed-link binding
  ARM: dts: ls1021a: switch to new fixed-link binding
  ARM: dts: st: switch to new fixed-link binding
  net: mdio: remove support for old fixed-link binding
  net: phy: phylink: remove support for deprecated fixed-link binding
