I don't think you replied to my comment.

in-band is just an optimisation. It in theory allows you to avoid a
software path, the PHY driver talking to the MAC driver about the PHY
status. As an optimisation, it is optional. Linux has the software
path and the MAC driver you are using basically has it implemented.

Why use this odd mix of in-band and out of band? It seems the change
will be simpler if you just use the out of band method all the time
and ignore in-band.
