Tested the patch, it works for me.  Thus I'll attach a pre-emptive

However, some quibbbles, which I think would be nice to see fixed:

Customary practice is to have these in the heder file ...

All this shifting makes the code hard to read and 
hard to verify for correctness.  Part of the problem 
seems to be that you are trying to re-cycle the 
BCM5421_COPPER and BCM5461_COPPER which are in 
different locations.

It would have been clearer to simply have

#define BCM5421_MODE_MASK  (1 << 5)
#define BCM5421_COPPER     0

if (phy_reg & BCM5421_MODE_MASK == BCM5421_COPPER)

> +     if ( (phy_reg & 0x0080) >> 7)

There is no need for the shift. The if statement is 
just as true (or false) with or without the shift.

More confusing shifting ....

Things that are being used for bitmak tests should probably
not be declared in an enum. For me, at least, there's a 
cognitive dissonance in doing things this way.
