we set the advertisement to potentially supported values. This behavior
may introduce new regressions on systems where EEE was disabled by
default (BIOS or boot loader configuration or by other ways.)

At same time, with this patches, we would overwrite EEE advertisement
configuration made over ethtool.

To avoid this issues, we need to cache initial and ethtool advertisement
configuration and store it for later use.
