There exists several examples today of devices that embed an ethernet
PHY or PCS directly inside an SoC. In this situation, either the device
is controlled through a vendor-specific register set, or sometimes
exposes the standard 802.3 registers that are typically accessed over
MDIO.

As phylib and phylink are designed to use mdiodevices, this driver
allows creating a virtual MDIO bus, that translates mdiodev register
accesses to regmap accesses.

The reason we use regmap is because there are at least 3 such devices
known today, 2 of them are Altera TSE PCS's, memory-mapped, exposed
with a 4-byte stride in stmmac's dwmac-socfpga variant, and a 2-byte
stride in altera-tse. The other one (nxp,sja1110-base-tx-mdio) is
exposed over SPI.

V3->V4 :
 - Clarify the KConfig description with the need for REGMAP
 - Put the correct #include in the new header, as per Vlad's review
V2->V3 :
 - Introduce struct mdio_regmap_priv for priv elements instead of plain
   reuse of the config struct
 - Use ~O instead of ~0UL
V1->V2 :
 - Use phy_mask to avoid unnecessary scanning, suggested by Andrew
 - Allow entirely disabling scanning, suggested by Vlad
