Convert TI NetCP driver to use ndo_hwtstamp_get()/ndo_hwtstamp_set()
callbacks. The logic is slightly changed, because I believe the original
logic was not really correct. Config reading part is using the very
first module to get the configuration instead of iterating over all of
them and keep the last one as the configuration is supposed to be identical
for all modules. HW timestamp config set path is now trying to configure
all modules, but in case of error from one module it adds extack
message. This way the configuration will be as synchronized as possible.
There are only 2 modules using netcp core infrastructure, and both use
the very same function to configure HW timestamping, so no actual
difference in behavior is expected.

mptcp: pm: in-kernel: fullmesh endp nb + bind cases
Here is a small optimisation for the in-kernel PM, joined by a small
behavioural change to avoid confusions, and followed by a few more
tests.
- Patch 1: record fullmesh endpoints numbers, not to iterate over all
endpoints to check if one is marked as fullmesh.
- Patch 2: when at least one endpoint is marked as fullmesh, only use
these endpoints when reacting to an ADD_ADDR, even if there are no
endpoints for this IP family: this is less confusing.
- Patch 3: reduce duplicated code to prepare the next patch.
- Patch 4: extra "bind" cases: the listen socket restrict the bind to
one IP address, not allowing MP_JOIN to extra IP addresses, except if
another listening socket accepts them.

By design, an MPTCP connection will not accept extra subflows where no
MPTCP listening sockets can accept such requests.
In other words, it means that if the 'server' listens on a specific
address / device, it cannot accept MP_JOIN sent to a different address /
device. Except if there is another MPTCP listening socket accepting
them.
This is what the new tests are validating:
- Forcing a bind on the main v4/v6 address, and checking that MP_JOIN
to announced addresses are not accepted.
- Also forcing a bind on the main v4/v6 address, but before, another
listening socket is created to accept additional subflows. Note that
'mptcpize run nc -l' -- or something else only doing: socket(MPTCP),
bind(<IP>), listen(0) -- would be enough, but here mptcp_connect is
reused not to depend on another tool just for that.
- Same as the previous one, but using v6 link-local addresses: this is
a bit particular because it is required to specify the outgoing
network interface when connecting to a link-local address announced
by the other peer. When using the routing rules, this doesn't work
(the outgoing interface is not known) ; but it does work with a
'laminar' endpoint having a specified interface.
Note that extra small modifications are needed for these tests to work:
- mptcp_connect's check_getpeername_connect() check should strip the
specified interface when comparing addresses.
- With IPv6 link-local addresses, it is required to wait for them to
be ready (no longer in 'tentative' mode) before using them, otherwise
the bind() will not be allowed.

Our documentation is saying that the in-kernel PM is only using fullmesh
endpoints to establish subflows to announced addresses when at least one
endpoint has a fullmesh flag. But this was not totally correct: only
fullmesh endpoints were used if at least one endpoint *from the same
address family as the received ADD_ADDR* has the fullmesh flag.
This is confusing, and it seems clearer not to have differences
depending on the address family.
So, now, when at least one MPTCP endpoint has a fullmesh flag, the local
addresses are picked from all fullmesh endpoints, which might be 0 if
there are no endpoints for the correct address family.
One selftest needs to be adapted for this behaviour change.

Instead of iterating over all endpoints, under RCU read lock, just to
check if one of them as the fullmesh flag, we can keep a counter of
fullmesh endpoint, similar to what is done with the other flags.
This counter is now checked, before iterating over all endpoints.
Similar to the other counters, this new one is also exposed. A userspace
app can then know when it is being used in a fullmesh mode, with
potentially (too) many subflows.

Cap bit tis_tir_td_order=1 indicates that an old firmware requirement /
limitation no longer exists. When unset, the latency of several firmware
commands significantly increases with the presence of high number of
co-existing channels (both old and new sets). Hence, we used to close
unneeded old channels before invoking those firmware commands.
Today, on capable devices, this is no longer the case. Minimize the
interface down time by deferring the old channels closure, after the
activation of the new ones.

On old firmware, (tis_tir_td_order=0), TIR of a transport domain should
either be created after all SQs of the same domain, or TIR.self_lb_en
should be reapplied using MODIFY_TIR, for self loopback filtering to
function correctly.
This is not necessary anymnore on new FW (tis_tir_td_order=1), thus
there's no need for calling modify_tir operations after creating a new
set of SQs to maintain the self loopback prevention functional.
Skip these operations.
This saves O(max_num_channels) MODIFY_TIR firmware commands in
operations like interface up or channels configuration change.

As a preparation patch, enhance the function structures to differentiate
between an explicit loopback prevention configuration apply, and the
re-apply operation required by old firmware.
Loopback selftests should now call mlx5e_modify_tirs_lb() directly, as
their use case is not related to the firmware limitation.

The original comments contained spelling errors and incomplete logical
descriptions, which could easily lead to misunderstandings of the code
logic. The specific modifications are as follows:
Correct the spelling error by changing "inut max" to "but not exceed the
maximum limit";
Add the note "If the user has not specified a value, the default maximum
limit is 8" to clarify the default value logic;
Improve the coherence of the statement to make the queue quantity rules
clearer.
After the modification, the comments can accurately reflect the code
behavior of "taking the smaller value between the number of CPUs and the
default maximum limit of 8 for the number of queues", enhancing code
maintainability.

net: stmmac: multi-interface stmmac
This series adds a callback for platform glue to configure the stmmac
core interface mode depending on the PHY interface mode that is being
used. This is currently only called just before the dwmac core is reset
since these signals are latched on reset.
Included in this series are changes to s32 to move its PHY_INTF_SEL_x
definitions out of the way of the dwmac core's signals which has more
entitlement to use this name. We convert dwmac-imx as an example.
Including other platform glue would make this series excessively large,
but once this core code is merged, the individual platform glue updates
can be posted one after another as they will be independent of each
other.
It is hoped that this callback can be used in future to reconfigure the
dwmac core when the interface mode changes to support PHYs that change
their interface mode, but we're nowhere near being able to do that yet.

- Split cq_lock into two smaller locks: cq_prod_lock and
cq_cached_prod_lock
- Avoid disabling/enabling interrupts in the hot xmit path
In either xsk_cq_cancel_locked() or xsk_cq_reserve_locked() function,
the race condition is only between multiple xsks sharing the same
pool. They are all in the process context rather than interrupt context,
so now the small lock named cq_cached_prod_lock can be used without
handling interrupts.
While cq_cached_prod_lock ensures the exclusive modification of
@cached_prod, cq_prod_lock in xsk_cq_submit_addr_locked() only cares
about @producer and corresponding @desc. Both of them don't necessarily
be consistent with @cached_prod protected by cq_cached_prod_lock.
That's the reason why the previous big lock can be split into two
smaller ones. Please note that SPSC rule is all about the global state
of producer and consumer that can affect both layers instead of local
or cached ones.
Frequently disabling and enabling interrupt are very time consuming
in some cases, especially in a per-descriptor granularity, which now
can be avoided after this optimization, even when the pool is shared by
multiple xsks.
With this patch, the performance number[1] could go from 1,872,565 pps
to 1,961,009 pps. It's a minor rise of around 5%.
