[PATCH net v4 0/4] MAC-PHY interrupt changed to level triggered interrupt

[Selvamani Rajagopal via B4 Relay]

According to OPEN Alliance 10BASE-T1x MAC-PHY Serial Interface
specification, MAC-PHY interrupt is "active low, level triggered".
The specification mentions about the conditions in which the IRQ
is asserted and deasserted.

Bug is inadvertently introduced by treating the IRQ in the OA TC6
framework driver and in dt-binding YAML file as edge triggered.

Changes are done in two files
 - OA TC6 framework Ethernet driver
 - YAML file for the vendor that already uses OA TC6 framework.

Maintainer for this driver is already informed and aware of these
changes. Testing for these changes was done in onsemi's setup and
found to be working.

Changes in v4:

- IRQ handler is changed to interrupt handler + wake up thread
  to interrupt handler + threaded irq. Threaded irq mechanism
  is better suited for level triggered interrupt. Because it can
  keep the interrupt disabled until interrupting conditions are 
  handled by a handler thread.
- SPI data handling function is called again on EAGAIN error code
  as it indicates RX buffer overflow error, which requires draining
  the bad data chunks.
 
  - Changed wakeup thread to threaded IRQ 
  - RX buffer overflow is handled before threaded irq returns
