Further cleanup is possible here:

                rx_int_delay = phy_get_internal_delay(phydev, dev, NULL, 0,
                                                      true);

                if (rx_int_delay <= 0)
                        rgmii_delay = 0;
                else
                        rgmii_delay = DP83822_RX_CLK_SHIFT;

At this point, rgmii_delay can only contain one of two possible values.
Zero, and bit 12 set.

The the code above modifies this value by either setting bit 11, or
clearing the already guaranteed to be clear bit 11. So, the only thing
that has any effect is setting bit 12, so we can omit the code path that
clears bit 11. Therefore, this can become:

		// TX_CLK_SHIFT disables the delay
                if (tx_int_delay <= 0)
                        rgmii_delay |= DP83822_TX_CLK_SHIFT;

I would also add a comment that RX_CLK_SHIFT enables the delay.
