qcom-sgmii-eth is an Ethernet SerDes supporting only Ethernet mode
using SGMII, 1000BASE-X and 2500BASE-X.

Add an implementation of the .set_mode() method, which can be used
instead of or as well as the .set_speed() method. The Ethernet
interface modes mentioned above all have a fixed data rate, so
setting the mode is sufficient to fully specify the operating
parameters.

Add an implementation of the .validate() method, which will be
necessary to allow discovery of the SerDes capabilities for platform
independent SerDes support in the stmmac netowrk driver.

According to patchwork (I forgot the RFC tag on the patches) it needs
linux/phy.h included. Plesae let me know if you'd like me to retain
your r-b. Thanks.
