I suspect we can probably guess.

Looking at SGMSYS_PCS_CONTROL_1, this is actually the standard BMCR in
the low 16 bits, and BMSR in the upper 16 bits, so:

At address 4, I'd expect the PHYSID.
At address 8, I'd expect the advertisement register in the low 16 bits
and the link partner advertisement in the upper 16 bits.

Can you try an experiment, and in mtk_sgmii_init() try accessing the
regmap at address 0, 4, and 8 and print their contents please?
