Florian Fainelli 4ab7f91381 net: dsa: bcm_sf2: properly propagate carrier down state for MoCA
MoCA interfaces require the use of an user-space daemon (mocad) which
will typically use cmd->autoneg to force the link. This is causing other
network manager applications not to get proper carrier down
notifications because of the following sequence of events:

- link down interrupt is received, link is set to 0 by the interrupt
  handler
- fixed_link update callback runs and updates the BMSR register
  accordingly
- PHY library polls the PHY for link status, sees the link is down,
  proceeds with reporting that
- mocad gets notified of the link state and call phy_ethtool_sset()
  with cmd->autoneg set to the link status (0)
- phy_start_aneg() is called at the end of phy_ethtool_sset() and sets
  the PHY state to PHY_FORCING

Just make sure we notify the interface carrier appropriately when we
detect that the link is down in our fixed_link update callback. This is
made local to the bcm_sf2 driver as the PHY library does the right thing
in any case. This is similar to the GENET change introduced in
54d7c01d3e ("net: bcmgenet: enable MoCA
link state change detection").
