In phylink_parse_fixedlink() the pl->link_config.advertising bits are AND
with pl->supported, pl->supported is zeroed and only the speed/duplex
modes and MII bits are set.
So pl->link_config.advertising always loses the flow control/pause bits.
By setting Pause and Asym_Pause bits in pl->supported, the flow control
work again when devicetree "pause" is set in fixes-link node and the MAC
advertise that is supports pause.
Results with this patch.
Legend:
- DT = 'Pause' is set in the fixed-link in devicetree.
- validate() = ‘Yes’ means phylink_set(mask, Pause) is set in the
validate().
- flow = results reported my link is Up line.

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 Restructured Text 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.
