The problem is... the stmmac driver is utter bollocks - that information
is *not* passed to the BSP. Instead, stmmac parse and store information
such as the PHY interface mode at initialisation time. BSPs also re-
parse and store e.g. the PHY interface mode at initialisation time.
The driver ignores what it gets from phylink.
The driver is basically utter crap. That's an area I _had_ patches to
clean up. I no longer do. stmmac is crap crap crap and will stay crap
until they become more receptive to patches to fix it, even if the
patches are not 100% to their liking but are in fact correct. Maybe
if I ever decide to touch that driver in the future. Which I doubt
given my recent experience.
