LGTM. When having a brief look at the driver I stumbled across two things:
1. Do MAC/PHY support any pause mode? Then a call to
phy_support_(a)sym_pause() would be missing.

The later is more complete.
Apparently it does support pause.
2. Don't have the datasheet, but IRQ_LCI seems to be the link change
interrupt. So far it's ignored by the driver. You could configure
it and use phy_mac_interrupt() to operate the internal PHY in
interrupt mode.
That's only for link state change, shouldn't the PHY interrupt trigger
on other things as well ?
