net: phy: improve pause handling
When probing the phy device we set sym and asym pause in the "supported" bitmap (unless the PHY tells us otherwise). However we don't know yet whether the MAC supports pause. Simply copying phy->supported to phy->advertising will trigger advertising pause, and that's not what we want. Therefore add phy_advertise_supported() that copies all modes but doesn't touch the pause bits. In phy_support_(a)sym_pause we shouldn't set any bits in the supported bitmap because we may set a bit the PHY intentionally disabled. Effective pause support should be the AND-combined PHY and MAC pause capabilities. If the MAC supports everything, then it's only relevant what the PHY supports. If MAC supports sym pause only, then we have to clear the asym bit in phydev->supported. Copy the pause flags only and don't touch the modes, because a driver may have intentionally removed a mode from phydev->advertising.
