ASIX AX88772B based USB 10/100 Ethernet adapter doesn't come
up ("carrier off"), despite the built-in 100BASE-FX PHY positive link
indication. The internal PHY is configured (using EEPROM) in fixed
100 Mbps full duplex mode.

The primary problem appears to be using carrier_netif_{on,off}() while,
at the same time, delegating carrier management to phylink. Use only the
latter and remove "manual control" in the asix driver.

I don't have any other AX88772 board here, but the problem doesn't seem
specific to a particular board or settings - it's probably
timing-dependent.

Remove unused asix_adjust_link() as well.
