Specific to a PORT_FIBRE implementation or specific to the PHY you are 
using? I think register 0x15 is implementation specific.

Why do you actually want to handle the fibre phy as a new port? I'd 
handle phy specific code by reading the MII_PHYSID{1,2} register and 
then adding a special case if your phy is detected. The port can remain 
at PORT_MII.
