I thought something was going to happen with this?
Our SQA confirmed that it's working ping as expected (i.e Speed at 1Gbps
with full duplex) with Intel I210 NIC as link partner.

Do you suspect any corner case where it's fail?
Let me restate the review comment from V2:

"Eww. Given that phylink has its own internal fixed-PHY support, can we
not find some way to avoid the legacy fixed-PHY usage here?"

Yes, it may work, but fixed-phy is not supposed to be used with phylink.
