U-boot configures this phy just like any other phy - by running a set of
register assignments from phy_info_M88E1145.

Unfortunately, I don't have a datasheet for this phy and kernel does
quite a few things differently, so simply copying stuff from u-boot
does not work well (in kernel, phy initialization is broken into 3
functions, if I'm not mistaken).

Otherwise, my problem seems to be identical to the one reported some
time ago against 88E1111 phy (which resulted in the addition of
"marvell_read_status" in the first place). The problem was, as it seems
to be now, that phy is always configured in "copper" mode, instead of
driver checking for the correct "fiber" mode bits.
