Hi Xiaofei.
This is half of the needed change for MAC flow control.
phy_support_asym_pause(phy) is used by the MAC to tell the PHY layer
that the MAC supports flow control. The PHY will then advertise
this. When auto-negotiation is completed, the PHY layer will call
qca8k_adjust_link() with the results. It could be that the peer does
not support flow control, or only supports symmetric flow control. So
in that function, you need to program the MAC with the results of the
auto-neg. This is currently missing. You need to look at phydev->pause
and phydev->asym_pause to decide how to configure the MAC.
