mpm: Return 10 Gbs link speed on failure
The sysfs call used to determine link speed occasionally will fail and
return -1. In order to mitigate side effects from this behavior, return
10 Gbs link speed instead of 1 Gbs. This mitigates problems that occur
when this issue is seen on 10GbE ports. This approach was elected over
returning -1 to be handled on the host side in order to avoid breaking
mpm compatibility.
