This patch series adds support to use kernel PHY subsystem APIs to get/set PHY
attributes like number of lanes and maximum link rate.

It includes following patches:

1. v2-0001-phy-Add-max_link_rate-as-a-PHY-attribute-and-APIs.patch 
This patch adds max_link_rate as a PHY attribute along with a pair of APIs that
allow the generic PHY subsystem to get/set PHY attributes supported by the PHY.
The PHY provider driver may use phy_set_attrs() API to set the values that PHY 
supports.
The controller driver may then use phy_get_attrs() API to fetch the PHY 
attributes in 
order to properly configure the controller.

2. v2-0002-phy-phy-cadence-torrent-Use-kernel-PHY-API-to-set.patch
This patch uses kernel PHY API phy_set_attrs to set corresponding PHY properties
in Cadence Torrent PHY driver. This will enable drivers using this PHY to read 
these properties using PHY framework.

The phy_get_attrs() API will be used in the DRM bridge driver [1] which is in 
process of upstreaming.
