[ofa-general] SMP attribute component errors : Link speed enabled?

Hi list, what is the attribute component error condition for the Link speed enabled? In spec. it is given 0x2 LSE 0xE but I think it is not applicable for all port speeds (2.5x, 10x etc.). I didn't find it either in the errata. -Mahesh
