This is wrong; you're looking at the autoneg result, not the link
partner advertising mask (7.61, MDIO_AN_EEE_LPABLE).  The link partner
might be advertising multiple modes and you should report them all
(including modes the local PHY doesn't support).  This possibly belongs
in a generic function in the mdio module.
