O.K.

O.K, just implement it according to the data sheet.

So i would have

static int marvell_read_status_page(struct phy_device *phydev, int page)
{}

basically doing what you have above, but without the read.

static int marvell_read_status(struct phy_device *phydev)
{
        if (phydev->supported & SUPPORTED_FIBRE) {
                marvell_read_status_page(phydev, MII_M1111_FIBER);
                if (phydev->link)
                return;

        return marvell_read_status_page(phydev, MII_M1111_COPPER);
}

The second.

You call genphy_resume(phydev) twice. Once is sufficient.
