Subject: [PATCH] b44: power down PHY when interface down

When the interface is down (or driver removed), the BroadCom 44xx card remains
powered on, and both its MAC and PHY is using up power.
This patch makes the driver issue a MAC_CTRL_PHY_PDOWN when the interface
is halted, and does a partial chip reset turns off the activity LEDs too.

Applies to 2.6.22-rc6, or current git head.

Tested on a Broadcom BCM4401-B0 card, it saves ~0.5W (measured using powertop).
