The PHY should enumerate what it supports, look at
genphy_read_abilities(), which reads the Basic Mode Status Register,
and there are bits in there which indicate if the PHY supports 10Half
and 10Full.

The MAC should also be indicating what it support, and ethtool will be
showing you the combination of the two.
