[PATCH v2 net 2/3] amd-xgbe: prevent CRC errors during RX adaptation with AN disabled

[Raju Rangoju]

When operating in 10GBASE-KR mode with auto-negotiation disabled and RX
adaptation enabled, CRC errors can occur during the RX adaptation
process. This happens because the driver continues transmitting and
receiving packets while adaptation is in progress.

Fix this by stopping TX/RX immediately when the link goes down and RX
adaptation needs to be re-triggered, and only re-enabling TX/RX after
adaptation completes and the link is confirmed up. Introduce a flag to
track whether TX/RX was disabled for adaptation so it can be restored
correctly.

This prevents packets from being transmitted or received during the RX
adaptation window and avoids CRC errors from corrupted frames.

Fixes: 4f3b20bfbb75 ("amd-xgbe: add support for rx-adaptation")

Changes since v1:
 - Change the rx_adapt_data_path_stopped flag to boolean type
   as it is only used as a true/false indicator.
