So the reason this got added is to keep the code compatible with how
things work today.

When priv->plat->has_xgmac is true, the old code in stmmac_phy_setup()
would enable speeds from 2.5G up to 100G, limiting them if
priv->plat->max_speed is set non-zero.

The table in hwif.c matches when:
	entry->gmac == priv->plat->has_gmac,
	entry->gmac4 == priv->plat->has_gmac4 and
	entry->xgmac == priv->plat->has_xgmac

The entries in the table which patch on has_xgmac = true contain the
following:

                .mac = &dwxgmac210_ops,
                .mac = &dwxlgmac2_ops,

Therefore, to keep things compatible, I've effectively moved this
initialisation into the new .phylink_get_caps method that is part of
those two ops, and since they have has_xgmac true, this means that
all these speeds need to be set.

We do this without regard to max_speed, which we apply separately,
after the .phylink_get_caps method has returned.

So, the code is functionally identical to what happens in the driver,
even if it is the case that xgmac210 doesn't actually support the
speeds. If those extra speeds that the hardware doesn't support were
present before, they're present after. If those extra speeds are
limited by the max_speed, then they will be similarly limited.

While it may look odd, since the specifications for Synopsys are all
behind closed doors, all I can do is transform the code - I can't
know that such-and-such a core doesn't actually support stuff. So
my only option is to keep the code bug-compatible.

I think all I've done here is make it glaringly obvious what the old
code is doing and you've spotted "but that isn't right!" - which is
actually a good thing!

Feel free to submit patches to correct the functionality as bugs in
the driver become more obvious!
