Hmn... Seems that negotiation happens based on what the endpoints want,
not what the wire can handle. So if one wants 100M and the other 10M,
then the 100M node will negotiate down to 10M. If both endpoints want
100M but the line can only handle 10M, then the endpoints have a very
hard time figuring that out. In my experience, they don't figure it
out... :p

So the only solution I can figure is to be able to force one end or the
other down to 10M, which will force the other to follow. Since the SB is
already highly programmable, it seems to be the easiest place to add
this functionality...
