Instead of having individual PHY drivers set the SUPPORTED_Pause and
SUPPORTED_Asym_Pause flags, phylib itself should set those flags,
unless there is a hardware erratum or other special case. During
autonegotiation, the PHYs will determine whether to enable pause
frame support.
Pause frames are a feature that is supported by the MAC. It is the MAC
that generates the frames and that processes them. The PHY can only be
configured to allow them to pass through.
This commit also effectively reverts the recently applied c7a61319
("net: phy: dp83848: Support ethernet pause frames").
So the new process is:
1) Unless the PHY driver overrides it, phylib sets the SUPPORTED_Pause
and SUPPORTED_AsymPause bits in phydev->supported. This indicates that
the PHY supports pause frames.
2) The MAC driver checks phydev->supported before it calls phy_start().
If (SUPPORTED_Pause | SUPPORTED_AsymPause) is set, then the MAC driver
sets those bits in phydev->advertising, if it wants to enable pause
frame support.
3) When the link state changes, the MAC driver checks phydev->pause and
phydev->asym_pause, If the bits are set, then it enables the corresponding
features in the MAC. The algorithm is:
if (phydev->pause)
The MAC should be programmed to receive and honor
pause frames it receives, i.e. enable receive flow control.
if (phydev->pause != phydev->asym_pause)
The MAC should be programmed to transmit pause
frames when needed, i.e. enable transmit flow control.

We get 1 warning when building kernel with W=1:
drivers/net/phy/microchip.c:58:5: warning: no previous prototype for 'lan88xx_suspend' [-Wmissing-prototypes]
In fact, this function is only used in the file in which it is
declared and don't need a declaration, but can be made static.
so this patch marks this function with 'static'.

Rather than have each driver set the driver owner field, do it once in
the core code. This will also help with later changes, when the device
structure will move.
