Subject: [PATCH net-next 3/4] net: phylink: remove .validate() method

The MAC .validate() method is no longer used, so remove it from the
phylink_mac_ops structure, and remove the callsite in
phylink_validate_mac_and_pcs().

    capabilities for ``interface`` to determine the allowable ethtool link
    modes.
 
-   The :c:func:`validate` method should mask the supplied supported mask,
-   and ``state->advertising`` with the supported ethtool link modes.
-   These are the new ethtool link modes, so bitmask operations must be
-   used. For an example, see ``drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/mvneta.c``.
-
    The :c:func:`mac_link_state` method is used to read the link state
    from the MAC, and report back the settings that the MAC is currently
    using. This is particularly important for in-band negotiation
