It would be better, rather than extending this workaround, instead to
have the PHY driver set phy->possible_interfaces in its .config_init
method. phy->possible_interfaces should be the set of interfaces that
the PHY _will_ use given its configuration for the different media
speeds. I think that means just PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_10G_QXGMII for
your configuration.

Thanks.
