The gen10g functions tend to be barely functional - for example,
gen10g_soft_reset() doesn't do the soft-reset thing, which could be
argued to be a bug, as there's a generic way to do that.

However, doing that for the Marvell 10G driver would be a big mistake.
The PHY crashes if you try to set the reset bit in any of the control
register 1s.
