This sounds like "if we're configured via port->slave.phy_if to be in
QSGMII mode, then the serdes PHY needs to be configured before any of
the QSGMII ports are used". Doesn't that mean that if
port->slave.phy_if is QSGMII, then the port _only_ supports QSGMII
mode, and conversely, the port doesn't support QSGMII unless firmware
said it could be.

So, doesn't that mean am65_cpsw_nuss_init_port_ndev() should indicate
only QSGMII, or only the RGMII modes, but never both together?
