net: dsa: initial support for MaxLinear MxL862xx switches

This series adds very basic DSA support for the MaxLinear MxL86252
(5x 2500Base-T PHYs) and MxL86282 (8x 2500Base-T PHYs) switches.
In addition to the 2.5G TP ports both switches also come with two
SerDes interfaces which can be used either to connect external PHYs
or SFP cages, or as CPU port when using the switch with this DSA driver.

MxL862xx integrates a firmware running on an embedded processor (based on
Zephyr RTOS). Host interaction uses a simple netlink-like API transported
over MDIO/MMD.

This series includes only what's needed to pass traffic between user
ports and the CPU port: relayed MDIO to internal PHYs, basic port
enable/disable, and CPU-port special tagging.

The SerDes interface of the CPU port is automatically configured by the
switch after reset using a board-specific configuration stored together
with the firmware in the flash chip attached to the switch, so no action
is needed from the driver to setup the interface mode of the CPU port.

Also MAC settings of the PHY ports are automatically configured, which
means the driver works fine with phylink_mac_ops being all no-op stubs.

Multiple follow up series will bring support for setting up the other
SerDes PCS interface (ie. not used for the CPU port), bridge, VLAN, ...
offloading, and support for using an 802.1Q-based special tag instead of
the proprietary 8-byte tag.
