There is no difference in the ID registers of the RTL8218 that
is attached to RTL83xx/RTL93xx or to possible other SOCs.
The RTL8218 series has a lot in common with the lower port
designs (e.g. RTL8211). They are driven by dual QSGMII and
can be attached to any non Realtek SOC.

If upstream rtlgen_read_mmd() is not the proper way then
I must think about it. But that needs to wait a bit ...
