Some Ethernet PHYs (like marvell10g) will decide the host interface
mode by the media-side speed. So, the rswitch driver needs to
initialize one of the Ethernet SERDES (r8a779f0-eth-serdes) ports
after linked the Ethernet PHY up. The r8a779f0-eth-serdes driver has
.init() for initializing all ports and .power_on() for initializing
each port. So, add phy_power_{on,off} calling for it.

This looks to me like it will break anyone using an in-band link,
where the link status comes from the PCS behind the series that
you're now powering down and up.

Thank you for your review!
To be honest, I didn't know about "an in-band link". So, I studied a little,
and then I might understand about your comments. However, I still don't
understand whether this hardware (rswitch) can support the "in-band link" or not.
This seems to need a special hardware feature for "in-band link" and
only software cannot support it, IIUC.
# Unfortunately, this hardware's datasheet cannot be in public for now though...

Anyway, I'll add a condition which this driver cannot support MLO_AN_INBAND
to avoid a problem by someone for now.

Best regards,
Yoshihiro Shimoda
