The MAC does not normally perform autoneg, the PHY
does. phylib/phylink then tells the MAC the result of the
negotiation. If there is a SERDES/PCS involved, and it is performing
the autoneg, phylink should get told about the result of the autoneg
and it will tell the MAC the result.

So the gmac1 should just have phy-handle pointing to the PHY, not a
fixed link.
