These syscon registers are in a separate address range, like a glue layer over the underlying EMAC hardware. There are only 2 registers defined in that address range, and this particular one is used only for EMAC related controls. The other register is not used anywhere in the kernel. It's a readonly register that gives the SoC revision. IIRC there was some work to add per-platform functions to support this, but we haven't the need to use it yet. Hope this clears things up.
