Not really, no.

Apart from adding the 25000baseKR_S_Full and 25000baseCR_S_Full link
modes (which are indeed newly added in patch 5) to phylink_c73_priority_resolution[],
it also adds the pre-existing 25000baseKR_Full and 25000baseCR_Full link
modes. Without this, phylink fails to resolve the 25G backplane or SFP28
speeds, and it just reports "Link is up - unknown/unknown".

The patch splitting may have been confusing. I had 2 options, either:

(a) - create one patch which adds the missing pre-existing 25G backplane/
      SFP28 modes to phylink_c73_priority_resolution[]
    - add the CR-S/KR-S link modes to phylink_c73_priority_resolution[]
      as part of the general CR-S/KR-S addition

or

(b) - first add the CR-S/KR-S link modes everywhere where phylink
      already uses 25GBase-KR/25GBase-CR
    - extend the phylink_c73_priority_resolution[] for all 4 link modes
      at the same time

I opted for (b) but I can also go with (a) if you prefer it that way.
