ravb/sh_eth: fix sleep in atomic by reusing shared ethtool handlers
For ages trivial changes to RAVB and SuperH ethernet links by means of
standard 'ethtool' trigger a 'sleeping function called from invalid
context' bug, to visualize it on r8a7795 ULCB:
% ethtool -r eth0
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/mutex.c:747

The root cause is that an attempt to modify ECMR and GECMR registers
only when RX/TX function is disabled was too overcomplicated in its
original implementation, also processing of an optional Link Change
interrupt added even more complexity, as a result the implementation
was error prone.
The new locking scheme is confirmed to be correct by dumping driver
specific and generic PHY framework function calls with aid of ftrace
while running more or less advanced tests.
Please note that sh_eth patches from the series were built-tested only.
On purpose I do not add Fixes tags, the reused PHY handlers were added
way later than the fixed problems were firstly found in the drivers.
Changes from v1 to v2:
* the original patches are split to bugfixes and enhancements only,
both v1 and v2 series are absolutely equal in total, thus I omit
description of changes in individual patches,
* the latter implies that there should be no strict need for retesting,
but because formally two series are different, I have to drop the tags
given by Geert and Andrew, please send your tags again.
