Please describe your setup more fully. What is the link partner on this
2500base-X link?

In PHYLINK_PCS_NEG_INBAND_DISABLED mode, this means that phylink is
operating in inband mode, but Autoneg is clear in the advertisement
mask, meaning Autoneg is disabled and we are using a "fixed" setting.
state->speed and state->duplex should already be initialised.

Since Autoneg is clear, phylink_mii_c22_pcs_decode_state() won't
change state->speed and state->duplex, which should already be
correctly set.
