I know Russell tends to use media side, and i use line side. I would
be happy with either. I think we both use host side.

"link" is way to ambiguous.

I do understand you not wanting to change phydev->speed, it is used in
a lot of places. But maybe changing it is good, you then get to look
at the code and decide does it want the media speed, or the host
speed.
