net: stmmac: rk: rk3506, rk3528 and kk3588 have rmii_mode in clock register

This commit consolidates RMII mode configuration for rk3506, rk3528, and
rk3588 by adding a rmii_mode_mask field to rk_clock_fields, removing the
per-SoC set_to_rmii() functions, and adding common code in rk_gmac_powerup()
to write this field.

The code above (not shown in the diff, but present in the function) is:

    ret = rk_get_phy_intf_sel(bsp_priv->phy_iface);
    ...
    if (bsp_priv->gmac_phy_intf_sel_mask ||
        bsp_priv->gmac_rmii_mode_mask) {
        ...
        ret = regmap_write(bsp_priv->grf, bsp_priv->gmac_grf_reg, val);
        if (ret < 0)
            return ret;
    }

At this point, if the block above executed, ret holds the return value from
regmap_write() (0 on success), not the interface selector.

> +		val = rk_encode_wm16(ret == PHY_INTF_SEL_RMII,
> +				     bsp_priv->clock.rmii_mode_mask);

For rk3588, both gmac_phy_intf_sel_mask and clock.rmii_mode_mask are set in
rk3588_init(). When the preceding block executes, it overwrites ret with
the regmap_write() return value. Then here, ret == PHY_INTF_SEL_RMII
compares 0 == 4 which is always false, so the rmii_mode bit will never be
set for rk3588 in RMII mode.

Should ret be saved before the preceding block so its original value
(the interface selector) can be used here?
