mvneta: implement ethtool autonegotiation control
This patch allows to do ethtool -s eth0 autoneg off ethtool -s eth0 autoneg on to disable or enable autonegotiation at run-time. Without that functionality, the only way to control the autonegotiation is to modify the device tree. This is needed if you plan to use the same kernel with different ethernet switches, the ones that support the in-band status and the ones that not.
