It won't have any effect on its own - because sfp_parse_support() does
this:

        if (bus->sfp_quirk && bus->sfp_quirk->modes)
                bus->sfp_quirk->modes(id, modes, interfaces);

        linkmode_or(support, support, modes);

        phylink_set(support, Autoneg);
        phylink_set(support, Pause);
        phylink_set(support, Asym_Pause);

Which means clearing Autoneg in "modes" via the modes SFP quirk will
have *absolutely* *no* *effect* what so ever.

The fact that you replied having *not* followed my suggestion and then
itimiating that it doesn't work is very frustrating.

No.

[rest of email cut because I can't be bothered to read it after this]

Please try what I suggested. You might find that it works.
