[][kernel][mt7988][eth][Change XGAMC force-link control flow and add XGMAC reset flow]
[Description]
Change XGAMC force-link control flow and add XGMAC reset flow.
After PHY link-down or link-up event,
it will cause noise interference to XGMAC.
These noises will cause XFI counter error.
If the noise is like start-of-frame signal,
it will make XGMAC enter the wrong finite-state.
XGMAC will start to wait for the end-of-frame
but the data buffer is filled with other noises.
When the first packet is receive,
only the end-of-frame signal is preserved,
so the data of the first packet will be lost.
Therefore, we will reset XGMAC after PHY link-up event
and clear all XFI counter values after the reset.
Changing XGMAC force-link flow is to
protect XGDM from being affected when XGMAC resets.
Without this patch, the first packet will be randomly lost after link-up
and the wrong XFI count values will appear.
