Subject: [PATCH 713/744] phy: improve safety of fixed-phy MII register reading
There is no prevention of a concurrent call to both fixed_mdio_read()
and fixed_phy_update_state(), which can result in the state being
modified while it's being inspected. Fix this by using a seqcount
to detect modifications, and memcpy()ing the state.
We remain slightly naughty here, calling link_update() and updating
the link status within the read-side loop - which would need rework
of the design to change.
