Please do not use 10gbase-kr - this is for backplane support, and was an
early mistake with the 88x3310 nand Armada 8040. Both behave compatibly
with it for older DT, and that's only what it's there for. You should be
specifying "10gbase-r" in DT. Please update your DT.

Sounds like old PHY firmware.
