The RTL8211F PHY driver currently enables the TX-delay only when the phy-mode is PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_RGMII. This is incorrect, because there are three RGMII variations of the phy-mode which explicitly request the PHY to enable the RX and/or TX delay, while PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_RGMII specifies that the PHY should disable the RX and/or TX delays. Additionally to the RTL8211F PHY driver change this contains a small update to the phy-mode documentation to clarify the purpose of the RGMII phy-modes. While this may not be perfect yet it's at least a start. Please feel free to drop this patch from this series and send an improved version yourself.
