Yes, it would need to, since it would be unreliable to determine from
the link mode bits.

The vendor part is not the conventional Marvell ID.  The 3310 appears
to be two or three different vendors IP all glued together, some of
which is in a way which violates the clause 45 register definitions.
Eg, there's multiple instances of PHYXS at 4K offsets, but C45
indicates that these are "reserved" and the place for vendor specific
stuff is in the two vendor MMDs.  Same goes for some of the other
MMDs as well.  I'll call these "MMD sub-blocks".

Some MMD sub-blocks have a Marvell ID in them, but others do not.

The OUI for the ID listed above is apparently "FiberHome Digital
Technology Co.,Ltd." but you'll also find the ID "0141 0daa" in some
of the MMD sub-blocks which corresponds with Marvell.

We can't use the sub-blocks though, because as I say, that's rather
non-standard and against the Clause 45 spec.
