Fix for autonegotiation of ppc 40x ethernet driver

Hello,

I have found a bug in the ethernet driver for the PPC 40x. The problem
is that the driver doesn't deal correctly if a user wants a limited
advertising range (via ethtool interface) - lets say 10Mbps/Halfduplex
and 10MBps/Fullduplex. The link always enters 100MBps/Fullduplex mode if
the link partner supports it. This is an incorrect behavior. I appended
a fix for this (against 2.4.22+ of the linuxppc 3.4 devel tree). It
would be nice if this change could be reviewed and incorporated into the
official code. If any questions arise - just ask...
