Sorry for the delay, I've been busy with other things and your message

So first thing first, your patch is completely whitespace damaged :-)

Now, as for your aproach:

No objection on the method above. It might be nicer to call those
fixed-phy-duplex, fixed-phy-speed, etc... and have a "fixed-phy" empty
property as a cleaner way to represent the phyless mode but that's not a
very big deal.

So you remove the above which sets the 1000bT support...

Ditto...

And never add back any option for 1000bT ... Not nice :-)

You should add the case back for 1000bT (btw, turn the above into a
switch/case statement please). And if phy.speed is none of the above
(default, ie, the property is not present in the device-tree), then
revert to the old method, or something like that. Or you may break
existing stuff.

Ok.

Cheers,
