Just an idea not really related to this patch. It will be coll to be
able to generate diagnostic graphs like this:

Interface | pairs | data | power | SQI | cable | selft
| direction | | | test | test
eth0 ok
0 | RX | NC | 7/7 | ok |
1 | TX | NC | NA | ok |
2 | NC | + 10W | NA | ok |
3 | NC | - | NA | ok |
