Despite the phy- bit, phy-mode is a MAC property, it defines the MII
the MAC uses. I would not expect to see this anywhere else.
The PHY driver is told what MII to use, phydev->interface, which takes
the values PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_RMII, PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_MII etc.
Please explain why you need this here, why is the MAC nodes phy-mode
property not sufficient.
