What is the reason for including this patch with this set, where
it is of no use until at least one DSA driver provides the new API
implementations?

Does it make sense to export pl->mac_supports_eee_ops wrapped into a
helper function and call that here? To avoid making DSA too tightly
coupled with the phylink MAC operation names.
