[PATCH] net/sfc: use default FEC mode

[PATCH] net/sfc: use default FEC mode

[Andrew Rybchenko]

All FEC modes are supported and allowed, but none are explicitly
requested.

This effectively means that FEC mode is determined solely form cable
requirements and link partner capabilities / requirements.
