Add cur_link_an_mode into phy_device struct for PHY drivers to
communicate the in-band AN mode setting with phylink framework.
As there is a mechanism in PHY drivers to switch the PHY interface
between SGMII and 2500BaseX according to link speed. In this case,
the in-band AN mode should be switching based on the PHY interface
as well, if the PHY interface has been changed/updated by PHY driver.
For e.g., disable in-band AN in 2500BaseX mode, or enable in-band AN
back for SGMII mode (10/100/1000Mbps).

Hi Choong Yong Liang,
Please consider adding cur_link_an_mode to the kernel doc
for struct phy_device - which is above the definition of struct phy_device.
