- In tl_attach() unify three different ways of obtaining the device and

- Given that tlphy(4) only handles the integrated PHYs of NICs driven by

- Switch mlphy(4) and tlphy(4) to use mii_phy_add_media()/mii_phy_setmedia().
- Simplify looking for the respective companion PHY in mlphy(4) and tlphy(4)
by ignoring the native one by just comparing the device_t's directly rather
than the device name.
- Use mii_phy_add_media() instead of mii_add_media(). I'm not sure how
this driver actually managed to work before as mii_add_media() is
intended to be used to gether with mii_anar() while mii_phy_add_media()
is intended to be used with mii_phy_setmedia(), however this driver

the NIC drivers as well as the PHY drivers to take advantage of the
mii_attach() introduced in r213878 to get rid of certain hacks. For
the most part these were:
- Artificially limiting miibus_{read,write}reg methods to certain PHY
addresses; we now let mii_attach() only probe the PHY at the desired
address(es) instead.
- PHY drivers setting MIIF_* flags based on the NIC driver they hang
off from, partly even based on grabbing and using the softc of the
parent; we now pass these flags down from the NIC to the PHY drivers
via mii_attach(). This got us rid of all such hacks except those of
brgphy() in combination with bce(4) and bge(4), which is way beyond
what can be expressed with simple flags.
While at it, I took the opportunity to change the NIC drivers to pass
up the error returned by mii_attach() (previously by mii_phy_probe())
and unify the error message used in this case where and as appropriate
as mii_attach() actually can fail for a number of reasons, not just
because of no PHY(s) being present at the expected address(es).

replace mii_phy_probe() altogether. Compared to the latter the advantages
of mii_attach() are:
- intended to be called multiple times in order to attach PHYs in multiple
passes (f.e. in order to only use sub-ranges of the 0 to MII_NPHY - 1
range)
- being able to pass along the capability mask from the NIC to the PHY
drivers
- being able to specify at which address (phyloc) to probe for a PHY
(instead of always probing at all addresses from 0 to MII_NPHY - 1)
- being able to specify which PHY instance (offloc) to attach
- being able to pass along MIIF_* flags from the NIC to the PHY drivers
(f.e. as required to indicated to the PHY drivers that flow control is
supported by the NIC driver, which actually is the motivation for this
change).
While at it, I used the opportunity to get rid of some hacks in mii(4)
like miibus_probe() generally doing work besides sheer probing and the
"EVIL HACK" (which will vanish entirely along with mii_phy_probe()) by
passing the struct ifnet pointer via an argument of mii_attach() as well
as to fix some resource leaks in mii(4) in case something fails.
Commits which will update the PHY drivers to honor the MII flags passed
down from the NIC drivers and take advantage of mii_attach() to get rid
of certain types of hacks in NIC and PHY drivers as well as a conversion
of the remaining uses of mii_phy_probe() will follow shortly.

different PHY instance being selected and isolation out into the wrappers
around the service methods rather than duplicating them over and over
again (besides, a PHY driver shouldn't need to care about which instance
it actually is).
- Centralize the check for the need to isolate a non-zero PHY instance not
supporting isolation in mii_mediachg() and just ignore it rather than
panicing, which should sufficient given that a) things are likely to
just work anyway if one doesn't plug in more than one port at a time and
b) refusing to attach in this case just leaves us in a unknown but most
likely also not exactly correct configuration (besides several drivers
setting MIIF_NOISOLATE didn't care about these anyway, probably due to
setting this flag for no real reason).
- Minor fixes like removing unnecessary setting of sc->mii_anegticks,
using sc->mii_anegticks instead of hardcoded values etc.
chip revision often found in the blades and resulting in interfaces
not sensing carrier signal. Looking at all problem reports it
appears that it only affects some very specific silicon revision
(ASIC (0x57081021); Rev (B2)) and version of the PHY that
supports 1000baseSX-FDX media only. Therefore, narrow the scope of
workaround to combination of that revision and media type. Given
that the first report on this issue is dated back to 2007, there is
not much hope that this issue will ever be properly resolved.
Among affected systems are IBM HS21, Intel SBXD132 and HP BL460c.

Unlike most other PHYs there is no easy way to know which media

select bits of some 88E1116 PHY is initialized to invalid one such
that restoring page select bits after programming broke MII
register access. The correct solution would be reset page select
bits to 0 in PHY attach stage but it would require more testing.
Since we're in BETA stage such a change would be dangerous so just
back it out.
This change should fix nfe(4) breakage on NVIDIA MCP55.
