 PLCA configuration

As i said in a comment somewhere, i would prefer you use
MDIO_MMD_VEND2, not MDIO_MMD_OATC14. We want the gentle reminder that
these registers can contain anything the vendor wants, including, but
not limited to, PLCA.

These are bits, so use the BIT macro. When this was part of mii.h,
that file used this hex format so it made sense to follow that
format. Now you are in a few file, you should use the macro.

It would be good to verify this value, and return -ENODEV if it is not
valid.
