With RGMII, we need a 1.5 to 2ns skew between clock and data lines. The VSC8601 can handle this internally. While the VSC8601 can set more fine-grained delays, the standard skew settings work out of the box. The same heuristic is used to determine when this skew should be enabled as in vsc824x_config_init(). Tested on custom board with AM3352 SOC and VSC801 PHY.

Hi Alexandru
You should be able to make "rgmii" work as expected. If that is the
phy mode, disable the skew.
