i40e: Added Asym_Pause to supported link modes
[ Upstream commit 90449e98c265296329446c7abcd2aae3b20c0bc9 ]
Add Asym_Pause to supported link modes (it is supported by HW).
Lack of Asym_Pause in supported modes can cause several problems,
i.e. it won't be possible to turn the autonegotiation on
with asymmetric pause settings (i.e. Tx on, Rx off).
