net: phy: allow a phy to opt-out of interrupt handling
Until now, it is not possible for a PHY driver to disable interrupts during runtime. If a driver offers the .config_intr() as well as the .handle_interrupt() ops, it is eligible for interrupt handling. Introduce a new flag for the dev_flags property of struct phy_device, which can be set by PHY driver to skip interrupt setup and fall back to polling mode. At the moment, this is used for the MaxLinear PHY which has broken interrupt handling and there is a need to disable interrupts in some cases.
