[ Upstream commit 8aace4f3eba2a3ceb431e18683ea0e1ecbade5cd ]

In phylink_parse_fixedlink() the pl->link_config.advertising bits are AND
with pl->supported, pl->supported is zeroed and only the speed/duplex
modes and MII bits are set.
So pl->link_config.advertising always loses the flow control/pause bits.

By setting Pause and Asym_Pause bits in pl->supported, the flow control
work again when devicetree "pause" is set in fixes-link node and the MAC
advertise that is supports pause.

Results with this patch.

Legend:
- DT = 'Pause' is set in the fixed-link in devicetree.
- validate() = âYesâ means phylink_set(mask, Pause) is set in the
validate().
- flow = results reported my link is Up line.

+-----+------------+-------+
| DT | validate() | flow |
+-----+------------+-------+
| Yes | Yes | rx/tx |
| No | Yes | off |
| Yes | No | off |
+-----+------------+-------+
