net: amd-xgbe: Check only the minimum speed for active/passive cables
[ Upstream commit f8ab263d4d48e6dab752029bf562f20a2ee630ed ]
There are cables that exist that can support speeds in excess of 10GbE.
The driver, however, restricts the EEPROM advertised nominal bitrate to
a specific range, which can prevent usage of cables that can support,
for example, up to 25GbE.
Rather than checking that an active or passive cable supports a specific
range, only check for a minimum supported speed.
