So what will happen when there are more speeds? Will we create a
separate file for each speed?

Will we have a separate sysfs file for 10, 100, 1000, 2500, 5000,
10000, 20000, 25000, 40000, 50000, 56000, 100000, 200000, 400000,
800000 ?

These are all speeds from include/uapi/linux/ethtool.h.

Maybe we should have reused ethtool link mode bits, or something...

Also, the files should only be present if the requested speed is
supported by the net device. So if 2500 mbps is not supported, there
should no be link_2500.
