* Add meson64 patch net: phy: meson-gxl: fix interrupt handling in forced mode
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-amlogic/patch/04cac530-ea1b-850e-6cfa-144a55c4d75d@gmail.com/
This PHY doesn't support a link-up interrupt source. If aneg is enabled
we use the "aneg complete" interrupt for this purpose, but if aneg is
disabled link-up isn't signaled currently.
According to a vendor driver there's an additional "energy detect"
interrupt source that can be used to signal link-up if aneg is disabled.
We can safely ignore this interrupt source if aneg is enabled.
This patch was tested on a TX3 Mini TV box with S905W (even though
boot message says it's a S905D).
This issue has been existing longer, but due to changes in phylib and
the driver the patch applies only from the commit marked as fixed.

* Add meson64 kernel patch: net: phy: meson-gxl: improve link-up behavior
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-amlogic/patch/e3473452-a1f9-efcf-5fdd-02b6f44c3fcd@gmail.com/
Sometimes the link comes up but no data flows. This patch fixes
this behavior. It's not clear what's the root cause of the issue.
According to the tests one other link-up issue remains.
In very rare cases the link isn't even reported as up.
