When limiting phy link speed using "max-speed" to 100mbps or less on a
giga bit phy, phy never completes auto negotiation and phy state
machine is held in PHY_AN. Fixing this issue by comparing the giga
bit advertise though phydev->supported doesn't have it but phy has
BMSR_ESTATEN set. So that auto negotiation is restarted as old and
new advertise are different and link comes up fine.

Forgot to tag the patch to stable@vger.kernel.org for v4.1 lts, should I
send a separate patch to Greg KH or you still hold a branch to be sent
for v4.1?
