Hi Michal

Your submission used:

+                               ethphy0: port@0 {
+                                       reg = <0>;
+                                       label = "cpu";
+                                       phy-mode = "rgmii";
+                                       ethernet = <&fec>;
+
+                                       fixed-link {
+                                               speed = <1000>;
+                                               full-duplex;
+                                       };
+                               };

This is good. If you have a fixed-link you can pass a phy-mode.

The comment that was removed was:

-               /* According to the datasheet, RGMII delay is enabled through
-                * PORT5_PAD_CTRL for all ports, rather than individual port
-                * registers
-                */

Is it possible to enable delays per port? Ideally, you want to enable
delays for just selected ports. Add another case for
PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_RGMII_ID to enable the delays.
