net: add linkmode helper for setting flow control advertisement

Add a linkmode helper to set the flow control advertisement in an
ethtool linkmode mask according to the tx/rx capabilities. This
implementation is moved from phylib, and documented with an
analysis of its shortcomings.

/**
* linkmode_set_pause - set the pause mode advertisement
* @advertisement: advertisement in ethtool format
* @tx: boolean from ethtool struct ethtool_pauseparam tx_pause member
* @rx: boolean from ethtool struct ethtool_pauseparam rx_pause member
*
* Configure the advertised Pause and Asym_Pause bits according to the
* capabilities of provided in @tx and @rx.
*
* We convert as follows:
* tx rx Pause AsymDir
* 0 0 0 0
* 0 1 1 1
* 1 0 0 1
* 1 1 1 0
*
* Note: this translation from ethtool tx/rx notation to the advertisement
* is actually very problematical. Here are some examples:
*
* For tx=0 rx=1, meaning transmit is unsupported, receive is supported:
*
* Local device Link partner
* Pause AsymDir Pause AsymDir Result
* 1 1 1 0 TX + RX - but we have no TX support.
* 1 1 0 1 Only this gives RX only
*
* For tx=1 rx=1, meaning we have the capability to transmit and receive
* pause frames:
*
* Local device Link partner
* Pause AsymDir Pause AsymDir Result
* 1 0 0 1 Disabled - but since we do support tx and rx,
* this should resolve to RX only.
*
* Hence, asking for:
* rx=1 tx=0 gives Pause+AsymDir advertisement, but we may end up
* resolving to tx+rx pause or only rx pause depending on
* the partners advertisement.
* rx=0 tx=1 gives AsymDir only, which will only give tx pause if
* the partners advertisement allows it.
* rx=1 tx=1 gives Pause only, which will only allow tx+rx pause
* if the other end also advertises Pause.
