[PATCH net-next 10/14] net: phylink: simplify fixed-link case for ksettings_set method

[Russell King <rmk+kernel@armlinux.org.uk>]

For fixed links, we only allow the current settings, so this should be
a matter of merely rejecting an attempt to change the settings.  If the
settings agree, then there is nothing more we need to do.
