Ethtool has the provisions to set the duplex and speed right?.

The only call back I see which is valid is config_aneg which would still
require a user space tool to set the needed link modes.

I could implement the config_aneg to call genphy_setup_forced if auto
neg is disabled but that function just writes the BMCR which is already
updated and if auto neg is enabled it would just call
genphy_check_and_restart_aneg.

I verified the ethtool path with the DP83822 by reading the BMCR and
ethtool displayed the correct advertisement
