Not the way they are currently handled:

+       /* Check if we need to attach to a RGMII */
+       if (!rgmii_valid_mode(mode)) {
+               dev_err(&ofdev->dev, "unsupported settings !\n");

Considering that nothing useful is being printed, that or nothing at
all really looks identical to me.
