Why do you advertise pause if you don't react to it (I commented on the
previous patch that you force flow control off)?

And the Microchip KSZ DSA phylink integration is the strangest I've ever
seen, bar none.

Do your RGMII ports work at 10/100/1000 Mbps? If yes, how?

Do your SGMII ports work in fixed-link, at 10/100/1000? How about with a
PHY that expects in-band autoneg?

Fundamentally, what is the purpose of this patch?
