My concern was filling the thing with all kind of modes and have an if
hell.

Ok this is very handy and just perfect for the task. Problem is that
adding a function makes this again a cross subsystem patch and
problematic to merge...

And having phy_speed_supported would make the function very heavy as the
settings struct needs to be parsed multiple times...

Still I see the settings struct doesn't provide a way to comunicate the
sum of all the modes. I already have a patch in mind for that (usual
enum define hell) but that is again cross subsystem thing...

I see phy declare a array of 50 element to have enough space for all the
link speed modes. Think I will have to do the same here and update
later to a better implementation.
