Thanks for the review.
The intention is to have the following precedence (I'll rephrase the commit if required)
-> If phy-mode is rgmii, current behavior persists for all devices
-> If phy-mode is rgmii-id/rgmii-rxid/rgmii-txid, current behavior persists for all devices
(i.e. delay of RGMII_CLK_DELAY_2_0_NS)
-> If phy-mode is rgmii-id/rgmii-rxid/rgmii-txid AND rx-internal-delay-ps/tx-internal-delay-ps
is defined, then the value from DT is considered instead of 2ns. (NOT irrespective of phy-mode)

I'm checking the phy drivers that use phy_get_internal_delay and the description phy-mode
in ethernet-controller.yaml and rx/tx-internal-delay-ps in ethernet-phy.yaml. It does look like
the above is allowed. Please do let me know otherwise.

I will re-spin the series using phy_get_internal_delay.

Harini
