Daniel Golle 4354b34f6f generic: 6.6: sync mt7530 DSA driver with upstream
Backport lots upstream changes, many of them fixes, for the mt7530 DSA
driver, similar to how it was done for Linux 6.1 in the previous commit.

The remaining differences compared to the upstream driver are only
the 'slave' -> 'user', 'master' -> 'conduit' language change in DSA
and the rename of 'struct ethtool_eee' to 'struct ethtool_keee' as
well as tree-wide replacement of ethtool_sprintf with ethtool_puts,
all of them do not have any functional impact.

Apart from some minor bug fixes and style improvements the switch
should now behave more conformant when it comes to link-local frames,
and we will again be able to cleanly pick patches from upstream.

Subject: [PATCH 03/30] net: dsa: mt7530: replace deprecated strncpy with
ethtool_sprintf
`strncpy` is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings
[1] and as such we should prefer more robust and less ambiguous string
interfaces.
ethtool_sprintf() is designed specifically for get_strings() usage.
Let's replace strncpy in favor of this more robust and easier to
understand interface.
