7c588c3e96 net: ocelot: Extend MRP
This patch extends MRP support for Ocelot. It allows to have multiple
rings and when the node has the MRC role it forwards MRP Test frames in
HW. For MRM there is no change.

d8ea7ff399 net: mscc: ocelot: Add support for MRP
Add basic support for MRP. The HW will just trap all MRP frames on the
ring ports to CPU and allow the SW to process them. In this way it is
possible to for this node to behave both as MRM and MRC.

Current limitations are:
- it doesn't support Interconnect roles.
- it supports only a single ring.
- the HW should be able to do forwarding of MRP Test frames so the SW
  will not need to do this. So it would be able to have the role MRC
  without SW support.
