r8152: enable UPS for RTL8157 and RTL8159 QFN68

This patch adds r8157_ups_en() and calls it from rtl8157_runtime_enable()
for RTL_VER_16 and RTL_VER_17_QFN68. When UPS is disabled and PCUT_STATUS
is set, the new disable path polls for backup-restore to finish. It also
extends r8156_ups_flags() with per-speed EEE flags and the 5G/10G speed
encodings.

[Severity: Medium]
If this read_poll_timeout() times out during a runtime resume on
RTL_VER_16 or RTL_VER_17_QFN68, does anything recover the device?

The path looks like this:

rtl8152_resume()
rtl8152_runtime_resume()
tp->rtl_ops.autosuspend_en(tp, false)
rtl8157_runtime_enable(tp, false)
r8157_ups_en(tp, false)
rtl_set_inaccessible(tp)

r8157_ups_en() returns void, so rtl8152_runtime_resume() keeps going and
returns 0. The reset fallback in rtl8152_resume() skips the runtime case:

if (!runtime_resume && test_bit(RTL8152_INACCESSIBLE, &tp->flags))
usb_reset_device(tp->udev);

The register reads in the poll succeeded, so r8152_control_msg() never
queued a reset. After that, every access returns early before
r8152_control_msg() gets to its reset logic:

if (test_bit(RTL8152_INACCESSIBLE, &tp->flags))
return -ENODEV;

r8152_submit_rx(), the interrupt callback and bottom_half() also return
early while the flag is set.

Would the interface then stay unusable until some unrelated reset, such
as rtl8152_tx_timeout() when TX traffic stalls, or a replug? An idle
interface would get neither.

Before this patch these chips never entered UPS on runtime suspend, so
this resume failure looks new.

Could this path queue a reset, or otherwise pass the error back, in the
runtime resume case?
