If you also embed struct phylink_config() in struct wx, then you can get
to it in the MAC operations using an inline function in wx_type.h:

static inline struct wx *phylink_to_wx(struct phylink_config *config)
{
	return container_of(config, struct wx, phylink_config);
}

which will be more efficient than doing the
netdev_priv(to_net_dev(config->dev)) dance. It's also what other network
drivers that use phylink do, so it brings consistency of implementation.

Phylink restricts the advertisement according to the capabilities
provided, do you should not need to do this. Please remove.

Please don't bypass phylink's management of this, instead set the
"mac_managed_pm" boolean in struct phylink_config.

As mentioned above, also set config->mac_managed_pm.

Thanks.
