It is the PHY which applies the delay.

The phy-mode property is in the MAC part of the device tree binding,
but the delay is not the primary purpose of this property. Its primary
purpose, RGMII, RMII, SGMII, etc, is applicable to both the MAC and
the PHY. It probably would of been better to have the delays as a
separate property, but that is not how it is...
