I don't think this is correct. If epause->autoneg is false, you
probably want to pass false, false here, so that the PHY will not
announce any modes. And then call bcmgenet_mac_config() to set the
manual pause bits. But watch out that you don't hold the PHY lock, so
you should not access any phydev members.

Looks like there should be an else here?

It is a bit oddly named, but phy_set_asym_pause() does this, minus the
lock. Please use that, rather than open coding this.

Locking is something i'm looking at now. I'm trying to go through all
the phylib calls the MAC use and checking if locks need to be added.
