Before the change I submitted, every "rgmii*" link was being set up as 
"rgmii-id", regardless of phy-mode. I suspected there might have been 
the odd board here or there that used "rgmii" when the actual mode is 
"rgmii-id".

What confused me the first time around was that I didn't realize the 
delay applies to the phy, not the mac. So "-id" means "the PHY provides 
the delays, so don't add delays on the MAC", just like you realized.

I'm glad it was an easy fix. Last time I had issues with RGMII, I had to 
pull out the oscilloscope.
