[RFC PATCH net-next 7/7] netlink: specs: add command to show individual phy information

[Maxime Chevallier]

With the ETHTOOL_CMD_PHY_LIST_GET command, we can obtain a list of PHYs
on a link, addressable through their phyindex. This index can be used to
issue PHY-specific commands. The phy_get command allows querying per-PHY
information. The information reported so-far is minimal (driver name,
phy id (for C22), upstream PHY type (real PHY, SFP phy), but we can
imagine extending this in the future to report PHY offloading
capabilities, status, and much more.

Example usage :

./cli.py --spec specs/ethtool.yaml --schema genetlink-legacy.yaml \
         --do phy-list-get --json '{"header" : {"dev-name" : "eth0"}}'
{'header': {'dev-index': 2, 'dev-name': 'eth0'},
 'phy-count': 2,
 'phy-indices': b'\x02\x00\x00\x00\x01\x00\x00\x00'}

./cli.py --spec specs/ethtool.yaml --schema genetlink-legacy.yaml \
         --do phy-get \
	 --json '{"header" : {"dev-name" : "eth0"}, "phy-index" : 1}'
{'drvname': 'mv88x3310',
 'header': {'dev-index': 2, 'dev-name': 'eth0'},
 'phy-id': 0,
 'phy-index': 1,
 'phy-upstream-type': 0}

./cli.py --spec specs/ethtool.yaml --schema genetlink-legacy.yaml \
	 --do phy-get \
	 --json '{"header" : {"dev-name" : "eth0"}, "phy-index" : 2}'
{'drvname': 'Marvell 88E1111',
 'header': {'dev-index': 2, 'dev-name': 'eth0'},
 'phy-id': 21040322,
 'phy-index': 2,
 'phy-upstream-type': 2}
