net/faraday: Mask out PHYSTS_CHG interrupt

The PHYSTS_CHG (the ftgmac100's PHY IRQ) is telling the system to go look at the PHY registers for a link status change. The interrupt was causing issues on Aspeed SoC where some board designs had an active high configuration, some active low, and in some cases repurposed for other functions. When misconfigured Linux would chew 100% of CPU cycles servicing interrupts: [ 20.280000] ftgmac100 1e660000.ethernet eth0: [ISR] = 0x200: PHYSTS_CHG [ 20.280000] ftgmac100 1e660000.ethernet eth0: [ISR] = 0x200: PHYSTS_CHG [ 20.280000] ftgmac100 1e660000.ethernet eth0: [ISR] = 0x200: PHYSTS_CHG [ 20.300000] ftgmac100 1e660000.ethernet eth0: [ISR] = 0x200: PHYSTS_CHG While in the ftgmac100 IP can be configured for high, low and edge sensitivity the current driver always polls the PHY, so we chose to mask out the interrupt.
