thx for the fix, as daniel already checked it on mt7986/bpi-r3 i tested bpi-r2/mt7623

but unfortunately it does not fix issue on bpi-r2 where the gmac0/mt7530 part is affected.

maybe it needs a special handling like you do for mt7621? maybe it is because the trgmii mode used on this path?

regards Frank
