net: pse-pd: Add support for PSE PIs

The Power Sourcing Equipment Power Interface (PSE PI) plays a pivotal role
in the architecture of Power over Ethernet (PoE) systems. It is essentially
a blueprint that outlines how one or multiple power sources are connected
to the eight-pin modular jack, commonly known as the Ethernet RJ45 port.
This connection scheme is crucial for enabling the delivery of power
alongside data over Ethernet cables.

This patch adds support for getting the PSE controller node through PSE PI
device subnode.

This supports adds a way to get the PSE PI id from the pse_pi devicetree
subnode of a PSE controller node simply by reading the reg property.

+PSE Power Interface (PSE PI) Documentation
+==========================================
+
+The Power Sourcing Equipment Power Interface (PSE PI) plays a pivotal role in
+the architecture of Power over Ethernet (PoE) systems. It is essentially a
+blueprint that outlines how one or multiple power sources are connected to the
+eight-pin modular jack, commonly known as the Ethernet RJ45 port. This
+connection scheme is crucial for enabling the delivery of power alongside data
+over Ethernet cables.
+
+Documentation and Standards
+---------------------------
+
+The IEEE 802.3 standard provides detailed documentation on the PSE PI.
+Specifically:
+
+- Section "33.2.3 PI pin assignments" covers the pin assignments for PoE
+  systems that utilize two pairs for power delivery.
+- Section "145.2.4 PSE PI" addresses the configuration for PoE systems that
+  deliver power over all four pairs of an Ethernet cable.
+
+PSE PI and Single Pair Ethernet
+-------------------------------
+
+Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) represents a different approach to Ethernet
+connectivity, utilizing just one pair of conductors for both data and power
+transmission. Unlike the configurations detailed in the PSE PI for standard
+Ethernet, which can involve multiple power sourcing arrangements across four or
+two pairs of wires, SPE operates on a simpler model due to its single-pair
+design. As a result, the complexities of choosing between alternative pin
+assignments for power delivery, as described in the PSE PI for multi-pair
+Ethernet, are not applicable to SPE.
+
+Understanding PSE PI
+--------------------
+
+The Power Sourcing Equipment Power Interface (PSE PI) is a framework defining
+how Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) delivers power to Powered Devices (PDs) over
+Ethernet cables. It details two main configurations for power delivery, known
+as Alternative A and Alternative B, which are distinguished not only by their
+method of power transmission but also by the implications for polarity and data
+transmission direction.
+
+Alternative A and B Overview
+----------------------------
+
+- **Alternative A:** Utilizes RJ45 conductors 1, 2, 3 and 6. In either case of
+  networks 10/100BaseT or 1G/2G/5G/10GBaseT, the pairs used are carrying data.
+  The power delivery's polarity in this alternative can vary based on the MDI
+  (Medium Dependent Interface) or MDI-X (Medium Dependent Interface Crossover)
+  configuration.
+
+- **Alternative B:** Utilizes RJ45 conductors 4, 5, 7 and 8. In case of
+  10/100BaseT network the pairs used are spare pairs without data and are less
+  influenced by data transmission direction. This is not the case for
+  1G/2G/5G/10GBaseT network. Alternative B includes two configurations with
+  different polarities, known as variant X and variant S, to accommodate
+  different network requirements and device specifications.
+
+Table 145-3 PSE Pinout Alternatives

+
+The following table outlines the pin configurations for both Alternative A and
+Alternative B.

++------------+-------------------+-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+
+
+.. note::
+    - "Positive V" and "Negative V" indicate the voltage polarity for each pin.
+    - "-" indicates that the pin is not used for power delivery in that
+      specific configuration.
+
+PSE PI compatibilities
+----------------------
+
+The following table outlines the compatibility between the pinout alternative
+and the 1000/2.5G/5G/10GBaseT in the PSE 2 pairs connection.
+
++---------+---------------+---------------------+-----------------------+
+| Variant | Alternative   | Power Feeding Type  | Compatibility with    |
+|         | (A/B)         | (Direct/Phantom)    | 1000/2.5G/5G/10GBaseT |
++=========+===============+=====================+=======================+
+| 1       | A             | Phantom             | Yes                   |
++---------+---------------+---------------------+-----------------------+
+| 2       | B             | Phantom             | Yes                   |
++---------+---------------+---------------------+-----------------------+
+| 3       | B             | Direct              | No                    |
++---------+---------------+---------------------+-----------------------+
+
+.. note::
+    - "Direct" indicate a variant where the power is injected directly to pairs
+       without using magnetics in case of spare pairs.
+    - "Phantom" indicate power path over coils/magnetics as it is done for
+       Alternative A variant.
+
+In case of PSE 4 pairs, a PSE supporting only 10/100BaseT (which mean Direct
+Power on pinout Alternative B) is not compatible with a 4 pairs
+1000/2.5G/5G/10GBaseT.

+Device Tree Configuration: Describing PSE PI Configurations
+-----------------------------------------------------------
+
+The necessity for a separate PSE PI node in the device tree is influenced by
+the intricacy of the Power over Ethernet (PoE) system's setup. Here are
+descriptions of both simple and complex PSE PI configurations to illustrate
+this decision-making process:
+
+**Simple PSE PI Configuration:**
+In a straightforward scenario, the PSE PI setup involves a direct, one-to-one
+connection between a single PSE controller and an Ethernet port. This setup
+typically supports basic PoE functionality without the need for dynamic
+configuration or management of multiple power delivery modes. For such simple
+configurations, detailing the PSE PI within the existing PSE controller's node
+may suffice, as the system does not encompass additional complexity that
+warrants a separate node. The primary focus here is on the clear and direct
+association of power delivery to a specific Ethernet port.
+
+**Complex PSE PI Configuration:**
+Contrastingly, a complex PSE PI setup may encompass multiple PSE controllers or
+auxiliary circuits that collectively manage power delivery to one Ethernet
+port. Such configurations might support a range of PoE standards and require
+the capability to dynamically configure power delivery based on the operational
+mode (e.g., PoE2 versus PoE4) or specific requirements of connected devices. In
+these instances, a dedicated PSE PI node becomes essential for accurately
+documenting the system architecture. This node would serve to detail the
+interactions between different PSE controllers, the support for various PoE
+modes, and any additional logic required to coordinate power delivery across
+the network infrastructure.
+
+**Guidance:**
+
+For simple PSE setups, including PSE PI information in the PSE controller node
+might suffice due to the straightforward nature of these systems. However,
+complex configurations, involving multiple components or advanced PoE features,
+benefit from a dedicated PSE PI node. This method adheres to IEEE 802.3
+specifications, improving documentation clarity and ensuring accurate
+representation of the PoE system's complexity.
+
+PSE PI Node: Essential Information
+----------------------------------
+
+The PSE PI (Power Sourcing Equipment Power Interface) node in a device tree can
+include several key pieces of information critical for defining the power
+delivery capabilities and configurations of a PoE (Power over Ethernet) system.
+Below is a list of such information, along with explanations for their
+necessity and reasons why they might not be found within a PSE controller node:
+
+1. **Powered Pairs Configuration**
+
+   - *Description:* Identifies the pairs used for power delivery in the
+     Ethernet cable.
+   - *Necessity:* Essential to ensure the correct pairs are powered according
+     to the board's design.
+   - *PSE Controller Node:* Typically lacks details on physical pair usage,
+     focusing on power regulation.
+
+2. **Polarity of Powered Pairs**
+
+   - *Description:* Specifies the polarity (positive or negative) for each
+     powered pair.
+   - *Necessity:* Critical for safe and effective power transmission to PDs.
+   - *PSE Controller Node:* Polarity management may exceed the standard
+     functionalities of PSE controllers.
+
+3. **PSE Cells Association**
+
+   - *Description:* Details the association of PSE cells with Ethernet ports or
+     pairs in multi-cell configurations.
+   - *Necessity:* Allows for optimized power resource allocation in complex
+     systems.
+   - *PSE Controller Node:* Controllers may not manage cell associations
+     directly, focusing instead on power flow regulation.
+
+4. **Support for PoE Standards**
+
+   - *Description:* Lists the PoE standards and configurations supported by the
+     system.
+   - *Necessity:* Ensures system compatibility with various PDs and adherence
+     to industry standards.
+   - *PSE Controller Node:* Specific capabilities may depend on the overall PSE
+     PI design rather than the controller alone. Multiple PSE cells per PI
+     do not necessarily imply support for multiple PoE standards.
+
+5. **Protection Mechanisms**
+
+   - *Description:* Outlines additional protection mechanisms, such as
+     overcurrent protection and thermal management.
+   - *Necessity:* Provides extra safety and stability, complementing PSE
+     controller protections.
+   - *PSE Controller Node:* Some protections may be implemented via
+     board-specific hardware or algorithms external to the controller.
