Hi Chris

Is this a mainline supported board? Do you plan to submit a patch?

Laurent, does the change also work for your board? This is another one
of those cases were a bug in the PHY driver, not respecting the
phy-mode, has masked a bug in the device tree, using the wrong
phy-mode. We had the same issue with the Atheros PHY a while back.
