It does make sense to me that an 'unprogrammed' device would work just fine as long as the programmed device-id's were supported by the driver (which they are) and the default mode matches your configuration. All 'programmed' means on an i210/i211 is that you've added some register writes to 'override' power-on defaults. As long as the power-on defaults work for your config then your ok. The default power-on config for i210/i211 is internal phy copper which is what you have.
