Subject: [RFC PATCH 0/3] e1000/e1000e/igb MDI-X control implementation

this patch series is RFC for implemenation, I've briefly tested
it to make sure I still get link after setting MDI-X and I see
the status change in ethtool.

The basic idea is to fill out the MDI-X read functionality with
some write functionality.

the e1000e patch is actually what drove this change as some users
have found wonky switches that must have MDI/MDI-X forced.
