To be honest, I don't know. "macif" is used by hisi-gmac driver, but in 
the TRM it's called "bus". So I guess it's just an alias? As you 
mentioned, I'll stick to macif everywhere, to keep sync with hisi-gmac 
driver.

As the name suggests, it's not part of the mac controller actually, 
rather it's the clock of the internal PHY. The SoC (or the PHY/MAC, I 
don't know exactly which) is quirky that it is mandatory to disable PHY 
CLK before MAC reset or else the PHY won't work(see 
hisi_femac_phy_reset()). I can't find a better solution. Letting the 
ethernet controller manage all clocks and resets seems the easiest way 
to handle this quirk.
