Will add the reason.
Just in case it doesn't make sense...
The reason is that putting a state in the mode bitmap doesn't look
correct. It's ""acceptable"" if we have only 3 state (rx, tx and link).
It become problematic when we start to have 7 modes and a link up state
should be handled differently.

Does it make sense?
