Subject: [net-next 6/6] igb: update to allow reading/setting MDI state

From: Jesse Brandeburg <jesse.brandeburg@...el.com>

This is the implementation for igb to allow forcing MDI state
via ethtool, allowing users to work around some improperly
behaving switches.

get_settings will now return the MDI state of the last link
because get_settings needs to succeed to allow the set to work even
when link is down.

Forcing in this driver is for now only allowed when auto-neg is
enabled.
