Are you sure?

In that case, please change this to:

	val = FIELD_PREP(RGMII_TX_DLINE_CODE, tx_config | tx_code |
					      rx_config | rx_code) |
	      RGMII_TX_DLINE_EN | RGMII_RX_DLINE_EN;

If that isn't what you meant, then your reply is wrong, and it seems
you're confused, which makes me then question how reliable your
replies are.

Please do not assign a clock to clk_tx_i that is not the dwmac
clk_tx_i input. clk_tx_i is a name used by the Synopsys DWMAC for a
specific clock.

As you don't need to do anything with it other than to get and enable
it, consider using just a local variable here.
