I don't think that SNI == SMII either.

>From what I could gather (datasheets of implementations in the wild,
rather than any official spec):
KSZ8895: https://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/aemDocuments/documents/UNG/ProductDocuments/DataSheets/KSZ8895MQX-RQX-FQX-MLX-Integrated-5-Port-10-100-Managed-Ethernet-Switch-with-MII-RMII-Interface-DS00002246C.pdf
DP83910A: https://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/dp83910a.pdf
RTL8201BL: https://file.elecfans.com/web1/M00/9A/9F/pIYBAF0fDAuANJTlAAqoYDastvw919.pdf

SNI (7-wire Serial Network Interface) has the same structural pin layout
as the parallel MII/Rev-MII, except for the fact that RXD[3:0] and
TXD[3:0] became RXD0 and TXD0, resulting in an effectively "serial"
interface and reducing the baud rate of the 100 Mbps MII to a quarter,
and the TX_CLK and RX_CLK signals also operate at a reduced 10 MHz
rather than MII's 25 MHz, to provide a further 2.5x baud rate reduction
down to 10 Mbps. It was a once popular (in the 1990s) interface mode
between a MAC and a 10Mbps-only PHY.

If we compare that to SMII (Serial MII), I could only find this document here:
https://opencores.org/ocsvn/smii/smii/trunk/doc/SMII.pdf

but it appears to be quite different. SMII seems to be a gasket/encapsulation
module which serializes both the data and control signals of up to 4 10/100
Mbps MACs, which can be connected to a quad SMII PHY. The resulting
(cumulated, or individual) bandwidth is much larger than that of SNI, too.

The pinout of SMII is:
- one RX and one TX signal for each MAC. Data transfer consists of
  segments (10 serial bits on these lines). The bits in each segment are:
  RX direction: CRS, RX_DV, RXD0, RXD1, RXD2, RXD3, RXD4, RXD5, RXD6, RXD7
  TX direction: TX_ER, TX_EN, TXD0, TXD1, TXD2, TXD3, TXD4, TXD5, TXD6, TXD7
- SYNC: denotes the beginning of a new segment
- CLK: denotes the beginning of a new bit

So, I guess we have to introduce PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_SNI rather than
pretend it is the same as SMII.

The rest looks ok (but, as SNI is a 10Mbps only interface, you could, in
v2, populate config->mac_capabilities in a common code path to MAC_100 |
MAC_10, and let phylink_get_capabilities() reduce it).
