I think this is an inappropriate use of the BIT() macro. BIT() should be
used for single bit rather than for field values.

You seem to have a two bit field in bits 1 and 0 of a register, which
has the values of:
0 - 10MBPS
1 - 100MBPS
2 - 1GBPS

I'd guess 3 is listed as "undefined", "do not use" or something similar?

This looks similar. a 2-bit field in bits 3 and 2 taking values:
0 - MII
1 - RMII
2 - RGMII

I'm not sure why you need to initialise "speed" and "conv_mode" above
when you could set them here.

Thanks.
