RDB regsiters are used on newer Broadcom PHYs. Add helper to read, write

It would be nice to give a hint what RDB means?

It means Register Data Base, it is meant to be a linear register
offset as opposed to the more convulated shadow 18, 1c or other
expansion registers.

Oh I just found some comment to another linux patch explaining this.
Because there is no trace what RDB actually means in the datasheets
from Broadcom I've seen so far.
