Provide a new ethernet phy configuration structure, that
allow PHYs used for ethernet to be configured with
speed, media type and clock information.

I'm not familiar with Ethernet. Are these generic media types? what does
SR or DAC refer to? Are there other media types? What is the out-of-band
mechanism by which the controller gets the media type? Why was this not
required for other existing Ethernet SERDES? Are you aware of any other
vendors who might require this?

Thanks
Kishon
