The PCS-reset procedure actually can be converted to being independent
from the PHY-interface. Thus you won't need to move the PCS resetting
to the pre_config() method, and get rid from the pointer to
dw_xpcs_compat utilization each time the reset is required.
Please see the attached patch for details.*

* I was going to submit it as a part of a one more XPCS-related series,
but seeing my work interfere with yours I'll hold on with sending my
patch set for until yours is merged in.

Please note, it's better to preserve the xpcs_find_compat() call even
if the need_reset flag is false, since it makes sure that the
PHY-interface is actually supported by the PCS.

If you still prefer the PCS-reset being done in the pre_config()
function, then what about just directly checking the PMA id in there?

	if (xpcs->info.pma == WX_TXGBE_XPCS_PMA_10G_ID)
		return 0;

	return xpcs_soft_reset(xpcs);
