Why? This seems at odds to the comment above?

What about 2500baseX_Full ?
The comments explain that the PCS<->PHY link is in 2500BASE-X and why
10/100/1000 link speed is mutually exclusive with 2500.
But the connected external PHY are twisted pair cable which only
supports 2500baseT_full.
The PHY should indicate what modes its supports. The PHY drivers
get_features() call should set supported to only 2500baseT_Full, if that is
all it supports.

What modes are actually used should then be the intersect of what both the
MAC and the PHY indicate they can do.
Noted Andrew. Instead of masking the 10/100/1000 mode support in the MAC, we will
set the supported modes in the PCS.
