Subject: [PATCH ethtool 2/2] netlink: settings: Drop port filter for MDI-X

From: Bastian Germann <bage@...utronix.de>

The port == PORT_TP condition on printing linkinfo's MDI-X field prevents
ethtool from printing that info even if it is present and valid, e.g. with
the port being MII and still having that info.
