The RTL8159 requires firmware for its PHY in order to work at connection speeds > 5GBit. Add support for uploading firmware for the PHYs using the existing rtl8152_apply_firmware() function in r8157_hw_phy_cfg() and set up the correct names for the firmware files. If no firmware is found, both the RTL8157 and the RTL8159 will continue to work.

Is that a bug fix? Andrew
