So the rfc patch now I have changed it to the following. Sure still
not ready for the real patch, but a few steps closer. The rtl8221b
can now be used as optical sfp (even without disabling autoneg in the 
sfp-quirk). Also it can be used with marek's rtl8221b rollball patch,
that changes interface between 2500base-x and sgmii. This is tested
on the BananaPi R3. The speed and duplex get are set from phylink. I'm
not sure what to do with pl->link_config.pause. For now I set it to
MLO_PAUSE_NONE.
