So what happens if this function gets passed a Clause 22 formatted
request?  Both regnum and mii_id are in the range 0-31.  MII_ADDR_C45
in regnum is clear.

The answer is we produce two Clause 45 frames on the bus, which is
certainly not correct.  You need to trap and error out if MII_ADDR_C45
is not set (as I've already said previously.)

The SMI operations need to do the reverse - they need to fail if they
receive a regnum with MII_ADDR_C45 set, as they are unable to produce
Clause 45 frames.

It's even more important here, as a Clause 22 write will produce a
valid Clause 45 pair of frames with dev_addr = 0.

Again, the corresponding SMI code needs to reject Clause 45 requests
as the SMI interface is unable to produce Clause 45 frames.
