Q1) Why do you think we should use this value for setting MII?

As per hardware manual the value you suggested is wrong for MII settings.
See page 2157

[A] The case which CXR35 SEL_XMII is used for the selection of RGMII/MII in APB Clock 100 MHz.

(1) To use RGMII interface, Set ‘H’03E8 0000’ to this register.
(2) To use MII interface, Set ‘H’03E8 0002’ to this register.

Values 1 and 3 are reserved so we cannot use 3.

I think the current patch holds good as per the hardware manual
for selecting MII interface. Please recheck and correct me
if it is wrong.

Cheers,
Biju
