Commit Message

  Add missing error checks in mmd_phy_indirect(). The error checks need to
be disabled to retain the current behavior in phy_read_mmd() and
phy_write_mmd(). Therefore, add a new parameter to enable the error
checks.

This is a preparation patch to introduce a new C45-over-C22 access
method which will make use of the new error checking.

Regarding the legacy handling, Russell states:

| The reason for that goes back to commit a59a4d192166 ("phy: add the
| EEE support and the way to access to the MMD registers.")
|
| and to maintain compatibility with that; if we start checking for
| errors now, we might trigger a kernel regression sadly.

v3:
 - don't export it anymore, instead there will be a dedicated helper
