Subject: [PATCH net 1/1] net: stmmac: add check for supported link mode before mode change

From: Noor Azura Ahmad Tarmizi <noor.azura.ahmad.tarmizi@...el.com>

Currently, change for unsupported speed and duplex are sent to the phy,
rendering the link to unknown speed (link state down). Plus, advertising
settings are also passed down directly to the phy. Additional test is
now added to compare new speed and duplex settings and advertising
against current supported settings by attached phy.
Non-supported new settings(speed/duplex and advertising) will be rejected.
