This is-c45 seems to be at the wrong level. As far as i know, you can
mix C22 and C45 devices on a bus. It is a property of the individual
MDIO device if it uses C45 or not.

I would expect your MDIO device PHY drivers to logically OR
MII_ADDR_C45 into the address when doing an MDIO read/write using C45.
