[PATCH v6] net: ethernet: nb8800: support fixed-link DT node

[PATCH v6] net: ethernet: nb8800: support fixed-link DT node

[Mason]

From: Sebastian Frias <sf84@laposte.net>

Under some circumstances, e.g. when connecting to a switch, the ethernet
port will not be connected to a PHY. In that case a "fixed-link" DT node
can be used to replace it.

This patch adds support for the "fixed-link" node to the nb8800 driver.
