Regardless of the name of the net, the functionality of a standby vs a
silent pin is very different. In this case, since the TJA1051 is
including a silent pin (pin S in he datasheet [0]), I think it's better
to declare it that way.

In case someone adds the support for a phy-oriented listen-only mode
(which is something I am thinking), this wouldn't break the integartion.

Francesco
