If the driver should be calling phy_init_eee to initialise EEE operation then I'm fine
with that (although I notice that the TI cpsw calls phy_ethtool_set_eee but I don't see
it calling phy_init_eee). However, it sounds like I need to keep my DT toggle of the
EEE enablement and parameters downstream.
