Yes I did consider it but it looks like ucc_geth is the only driver
that has a configuration that applies to all R(MII/GMII/TBI) interfaces
:/ I didn't even know about RTBI mode before looking at that driver and
it does look like it's not supported by that many devices... I'd be
happy to put that in phy.h but I think ucc_geth is going to be the sole
user :)

Thanks,

Maxime
