This call to genphy_update_link() means this function is doing more
than en8811h_get_lpa() would imply.

It is hard to see from just the patch, but it also seems to set the
state in phydev back to unknown defaults, and read the master/slave
status?

So i think it needs a better name.

Yes, that was my feeling too. Just couldn't think of any.  So I took the
lazy route.  You wouldn't happen to have a suggestion?

OK, I know it's my job.  I'll try to come up with something better.
