This patch enables the fourth network interface on the Marvell
Macchiatobin. It is configured in the 2500Base-X PHY mode.

This is wrong.  This lane is connected to a SFP cage which can support
more than just 2500base-X.  Tying it in this way to 2500base-X means
that this port does not support conenctions at 1000base-X, despite
that's one of the most popular and more standardised speeds.
Hi Antoine

I agree with Russell here. SFP modules are hot pluggable, and support
a range of interface modes. You need to query what the SFP module is
in order to know how to configure the SERDES interface. The phylink
infrastructure does that for you.
