Subject: ixgbe: Fix reporting of 100Mb capability

From: Tony Nguyen <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit f215266470dfe86196a31fe0725a86cea77f9a18 ]

BaseT adapters that are capable of supporting 100Mb are not reporting this capability. This patch corrects the reporting so that 100Mb is shown as supported on those adapters.
