Yes, PHY_ID_VSC8531_01 exists:
https://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/VMDS-10494.pdf
And I'm sorry I realize now that this patch breaks that version.

Also considering your RC on the other thread,
" Just to make it clear why the existing PHY_ID_VSC853/0xfffffff0 is not sufficient."
Currently there is no difference in the phy driver structure between
VSC8531 and VSC8531_02. Let me double check the identification on
my board and skip this patch if possible. The RGMII delay support in
2/3 is generic anyway.

Regards,
Harini
