Matthias Schiffer <matthias.schiffer@ew.tq-group.com> says: Following a discussion on the LKML [1], there has been a clarification of the correct use of the rgmii(/-rxid/-txid/-it) phy-modes [2] - namely, that they don't describe the interface at the MAC or PHY boundary, but whether the PCB traces add delays or not (where it is implementation-defined whether the delays are added on the MAC or PHY side in the latter case). Accordingly, a fixup has been implemented in the am65-cpsw-nuss driver to make it follow the clarified rules [3]; apply the same change to U-Boot. Backwards compatibility is preserved: using an old DTB with the wrong phy-mode only results in a warning message, but keeps the Ethernet working. With a new DTB from Linux 6.17+ that sets the mode to rgmii-id, these changes are necessary to avoid using an unsupported/ reserved configuration. See the commit message of patch 2/2 for some additional detail.
