Subject: net: phy: fix marvell phy status reading

From: Russell King <[email protected]>

commit 898805e0cdf7fd860ec21bf661d3a0285a3defbd upstream.

The Marvell driver incorrectly provides phydev->lp_advertising as the logical and of the link partner's advert and our advert. This is incorrect - this field is supposed to store the link parter's unmodified advertisment.

This allows ethtool to report the correct link partner auto-negotiation status.
