Excellent!  I wasted a bunch of time looking at emulating the MDIO
interface and decided that was too hacky.  I didn't realize it could
be so easy to fork off a different method to collect the most recently
reported speed. Thank you!

Nit: Use of SPEED_UNKNOWN here can be confusing since the units for
rxspeed/txspeed are bps, not Mbps (AFAICT SPEED_XXX are Mbps numbers).
In other words, this is the only usbnet location that could use
SPEED_xxx define and other developers might not realize that.
Personally, I'd rather set the fields to zero here.

Do you want to note the units used (bps) in the trailing comment?

The numbers for cdc_ncm and cdc_ether will be "bits per second" due to
how older modems could report "odd" (from an ethernet point of view)
speeds.

Also, the changes I just submitted (and kuba@xxxxxxxxxx accepted)
named these "rx_speed" (with underscore). I don't care which it is but
just wanted to warn about and apologize for the conflict.

cheers,
