net: phy-c45: Fix genphy_c45_ethtool_set_eee description
The text has been cut/paste from genphy_c45_ethtool_get_eee but not changed to reflect it performs set. Additionally, extend the comment. This function implements the logic that eee_enabled has global control over EEE. When eee_enabled is false, no link modes will be advertised, and as a result, the MAC should not transmit LPI.
