Remove a source of latency spikes (in my case up to 10ms) by not calling
code that uses mdelay() for feeding a phy statistic (rx errors for idle
symbols - not data -> idle_errors) while being called with a spinlock held.
As idle_errors isn't read, this patch only removes unused code and data.
Later, more complicated changes may be applied to address the spinlock and
allow for some PHY diagnostics by harvesting this PHY stats register fully.
This patch is designed to fix the issue and be safe for longterm/stable.
For the Intel e1000e driver, the same change was applied in 2008 with
commit 23033fad5b ("e1000e: remove phy read from inside spinlock").
The mdelay is triggered by HW/SW semaphores, thus it depends on the HW.
I've HW that triggers it even when idle. Others may trigger it only e.g.
when Ethernet ports aquire or loose the link or on ifconfig up / down.
We've noticed this first from delays in frame rx/tx due to the mdelay().
Example command for checking if the issue is triggered: cyclictest -Smp1
(Look for occasional "Max:" values > 4000 or use -b 4000 to stop if greater)
It was observed with I350 ports connected to other I350 ports, but not
if driver and EEPROM was modified to run the I350 in EEPROM-less mode.
phy_stats.idle_errors and .receive_errors (isn't touched) occupy 64 not
used bits in the adapter struct: Their allocation may be removed as well.

On some devices, the internal PLL circuit occasionally provides the
wrong clock frequency after power up. The probability of failure is less
than one failure per 1000 power cycles. When the failure occurs, the
internal clock frequency is around 1/20 of the correct frequency.

This patch adds support for the hardware feature Media Auto Sense. This
feature requires a custom EEPROM image provided by our customer support
team. The feature allows hardware designed with dual PHY's, fiber and
copper to be used with either media without additional EEPROM changes.
Fiber is preferred and driver will swap and configure for fiber media if
sensed by the device at any time. Device will swap back to copper if it
is the only media detected.

This patch adds a new feature which is supported in some PHY's on some i354
devices. This feature is Auto Media Detect and allows which ever media is
detected first by the PHY to be the media used and configured by the
device. This is a media swapping feature that is wholly contained in the
Marvell PHY.

There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern
in the kernel sources. Standardize on not using extern for
function prototypes.
Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern.
extern is assumed by the compiler. Its use is as unnecessary as
using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.
