I would say "link_update" callback return value is inconsistent across
drivers. I'm not sure which direction is right here: make it consistent
or make it void. Also any changes in link information could be
important. As I understand it should not happen without up/down,
but bugs with loss of intermediate transitions are definitely possible.
So, notifying about any changes in link information is definitely safer.
May be not now.
