Right, so we could expect your C45 PHY driver to assign the read_status
callback to gen10g_read_status() if it is appropriate. So far most of
the 10g PHY drivers (cortina, marvell10g, aquantia) have to define their
own read_status() callback to be feature complete. Unlike C22 PHYs that
can really be driven with a simple generic PHY driver model for standard
features, C45 PHYs seem to be quirky enough this does not work anymore.
