Should be ADVERTISE_10HALF.

Pause advertising should also be controllable through ethtool, if flow
control can be altered in the MAC.  (It's not clear whether it can.)

This should also check for unsupported advertising flags (e.g.
ADVERTISED_1000baseT_Full when the MAC doesn't support 1000M) and return
-EINVAL if they're set.
