Hi Vinod

So i'm still confused if this is global, or per-port. The first
register written looks to be per-port, although only for ports 0 and
6. The second write seems to be global.

Is there a danger that port 0 has PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_RGMII_ID and port
6 has PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_RGMII, and we end up with delays disabled?
Maybe we should try to detect this, and return an error?

I think it would be good to add the other two PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_RGMII
modes to the default clause so we get an error reported that they are
not implemented.
