connected, we can create a phy_port to represent it. Instead of letting
the SFP subsystem handle that, the Bus' upstream is in charge of
maintaining that phy_port and register it to the topology, as the
upstream (in this case a phy device) is directly interacting with the
underlying net_device.

Add a phy_caps helper alongside to get the achievable modes on this

Alongside what?
