Hi Andrew,
Per double check qca8081 PHY registers, the PHY ID only exists in the 
MII register, which is not in the MMD device register.

There are MMD device 1, 3, 7 in qca8081 PHY, the PMA abilities 
10/100/1000/2500 are compliant with genphy_c45_pma_read_abilities, but 
the MDIO_AN_STAT1_ABLE does not exist in MMD7.1 register.

so the genphy_c45_pma_read_abilities can't be fully supported by qca8081 
phy, sorry for this misunderstanding.
