MDIO Link state bits. This register is updated after a read of the Generic Status Register of a PHY.
The bit is set if the PHY with the corresponding address has link and the PHY acknowledges the
read transaction. The bit is reset if the PHY indicates it does not have link or fails to acknowledge
the read transaction. Writes to the register have no effect.
