Some SFPs may contain an internal PHY which may in some cases want to
connect with the host interface in 1000base-x/2500base-x mode.
Do not fail if such PHY is being attached in one of these PHY interface
modes.

I think also changing phylink_sfp_config() too since that check is no
longer relevent - although it doesn't actually end up being effective
today. So, might as well be removed along with the above change.
