For KR port the mii interface is a chip-to-chip
interface without a mechanical connector. So PHY
inits are not applicable. In this case MAC is
configured to operate at forced speed(1000Mbps)
and full duplex. Modified driver to accommodate
PHY and NON-PHY mode.
I agree with Florian here. Look at all the in kernel examples of a SoC
MAC connected to an Ethernet switch. Some use rgmii, others 1000BaseX
or higher. But they all follow the same scheme, and don't need
invasive MAC driver changes.
