Something like that I suppose. But don't call it "dumb phy", nor "fake phy", nor anything similar -- there simply is _no_ phy. If the Linux code wants to pretend there is one, that's one thing, but there is no need to do any of this trickery in the device tree. > Therefore, it should > use the fixed speed and duplex from device node rather than registers.
