Could you please elaborate what do you mean by
" common + protocol or protocol + common, not both please!"?
The order is same everywhere which is common + lane configuration for protocol 1
and then for protocol 2. For multiprotocol case, PHY configuration is based on which
protocols are operating simultaneously. So e.g.
[TYPE_QSGMII][TYPE_PCIE] -> QSGMII configuration when other protocol is PCIe
Which might be different than
[TYPE_QSGMII][TYPE_*] -> QSGMII configuration with other protocol.

Thanks & regards,
Swapnil
