Yes.

The minimum is marking those that support C45 with MDIOBUS_C45 or
MDIOBUS_C45_C22. We can then really trust it does C45. Those that
don't set probe_capabilities we assume are C22 only. That should be
enough for this problem.

FYI: Yesterday i started actually adding probe_capabilities values to
drivers. I did everything in driver/net/mdio. I will work on the rest
over the next few days and then post an RFC patchset.
