Problem with PHY offloc for Cadence ethernet

Kia ora koutou,
I got NetBSD booting on my ALINX AX7021B Zynq system the other day and
I've just now managed to get the ethernet online.

The problem turned out to be that the PHY appears at offset location 0,
but the Cadence ethernet driver calls mii_attach with a fixed offset
location of 1 (i.e. "mii_attach(sc->sc_dev, mii, 0xffffffff,
MII_PHY_ANY, 1, 0);"). 

I changed "1" to "MII_OFFSET_ANY" made my ethernet come online. 

I went through the Mercurial logs to see if I can find out why that
code is that way and I found this log message.

  $ hg log -r 1021807 -v if_cemac.c

Well, that makes things more difficult for me. My board doesn't have
any extra PHYs that need to be skipped.

Is this something that should be fixable with a suitable devicetree
specification? I already have to write the devicetree source and I
don't mind having a go at improving the Cadence driver's support for
the FDT bindings if there is anything lacking there. I really just
don't know what's right and what's feasible. Any advice will be
appreciated.

Ngā mihi,
Lloyd
