This isn't enough.

It looks like various parts of this driver set the mask field
differently.

dwmac1000_core.c and dwmac100_core.c set the mask to be the low bits.

But dwmac4_core.c uses GENMASK(11, 8) which means the mask is a value
which is shifted up already.

So your patch will break chips driven by dwmac4_core.c.

In order for your change to be correct you must consolidate all of
these various pieces to use the same convention.
