Not all variants of the sh_eth hardware have Gigabit
support. Unfortunately, the current driver doesn't tell the PHY about
the limited MAC capabilities. Due to this, if you have a Gigabit
capable PHY, the PHY will advertise its Gigabit capability and
establish a link at 1Gbit/s, even though the MAC doesn't support it.

In order to avoid this, we use the recently introduced
phy_set_max_speed() to tell the PHY to not advertise speed higher than
100 MBit/s.

Tested on a SH7786 platform, with a Gigabit PHY.

Changes since v1:
 - Use phy_set_max_speed(), as suggested by Sergei Shtylyov
   <sergei.shtylyov@cogentembedded.com>.

    Er, why do we need a *goto* here at all? Just call phy_disconnect() here 
and be done with that...

Thanks for the feedback, I've sent a v3 that takes into account this
comment.

Thanks!
