The commit message is supposed to answer the question "Why?". Isn't
reducing the voltage going to make the device non conforming? Why
would i want to break it? I could understand setting it a bit higher
than required to handle losses on the PCB and connector, so the
voltages measured on the RJ45 pins are conforming.

Also, what makes the dp8382 special? I know other PHYs can actually do
this. So why are we adding some vendor specific property just for
100base-tx?
