Switch network drivers, phy drivers, and SFP/phylink over to use the
more correct 10GBASE-R, rather than 10GBASE-KR. 10GBASE-KR is backplane
ethernet, which is 10GBASE-R with autonegotiation on top, which our
current usage on the affected platforms does not have.

The only remaining user of PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_10GKR is the Aquantia
PHY, which has a separate mode for 10GBASE-KR.

For Marvell mvpp2, we detect 10GBASE-KR, and rewrite it to 10GBASE-R
for compatibility with existing DT - this is the only network driver
at present that makes use of PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_10GKR.

History
Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
