Since the clock enablement now happens in all modes the existing rgmii
function name seems misleading to me. Also we don't want to enable for
all PHY types, and the differentiation is already available at the
caller. I would thus opt for a separate function and fewer conditional
statements.

Its my first patch re-submission, so sorry for the noob question:
Should I include your "pw-bot: changes-requested" tag with the third
patch? Probably not.
Of course I'll include your tags for patches 1 and 2.
