ovr_an_inband was added to support "non-DT" platforms, and the only
place it's set is stmmac. I don't see why you'd want a driver to always
set this member, and then have phylink clear it - the driver should be
setting it correctly itself, otherwise it becomes a "maybe override AN
inband if certain conditions are met" flag inside phylink.
