Implement get_mse_capability() and get_mse_snapshot() for the DP83TD510E to expose its Mean Square Error (MSE) register via the new PHY MSE UAPI. The DP83TD510E does not document any peak MSE values; it only exposes a single average MSE register used internally to derive SQI. This implementation therefore advertises only PHY_MSE_CAP_AVG, along with LINK and channel-A selectors. Scaling is fixed to 0xFFFF, and the refresh interval/number of symbols are estimated from 10BASE-T1L symbol rate (7.5 MBd) and typical diagnostic intervals (~1 ms). For 10BASE-T1L deployments, SQI is a reliable indicator of link modulation quality once the link is established, but it does not indicate whether autonegotiation pulses will be correctly received in marginal conditions. MSE provides a direct measurement of slicer error rate that can be used to evaluate if autonegotiation is likely to succeed under a given cable length and condition. In practice, testing such scenarios often requires forcing a fixed-link setup to isolate MSE behaviour from the autonegotiation process.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
