Move the USB link power configuration logic from lan78xx_link_reset() to a new helper function lan78xx_configure_usb(). This simplifies the main link reset path and isolates USB-specific logic. The new function handles U1/U2 enablement based on Ethernet link speed, but only for SuperSpeed-capable devices (LAN7800 and LAN7801). LAN7850, a High-Speed-only device, is explicitly excluded. A warning is logged if SuperSpeed is reported unexpectedly for LAN7850. Add a forward declaration for lan78xx_configure_usb() as preparation for the upcoming phylink conversion, where it will also be used from the mac_link_up() callback. Open questions remain: - Why is the 1000 Mbps configuration split into two steps (U2 disable, then U1 enable), unlike the single-step config used for 10/100 Mbps? - U1/U2 behavior appears to depend on proper EEPROM configuration. There are known devices in the field without EEPROM. Should the driver enforce safe defaults in such cases? Due to lack of USB subsystem expertise, no changes were made to this logic beyond structural refactoring. Signed-off-by: Oleksij Rempel <o.rempel@pengutronix.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
