You are right, mv88e6393x_phylink_get_caps is currently too "generous" with
capabilities for 88E6361. With this chip, supported links modes are the following:
- port 0: MII, RMII, RGMII, 1000BaseX, 2500BaseX
- port 3 to 7: triple speed internal phys
- port 9 and 10: 1000BaseX, 25000BaseX
I'll add those specifications in cover letter for next revision for this series.
So indeed reported capabilities are wrong, I will update it. Taking a quick look
at other ops, I guess I'll have to fix some others too like
mv88e6393x_port_max_speed_mode

Indeed there is something wrong here too. I need to tune
mv88e6393x_phylink_get_caps to reflect 88E6361 differences.
As stated above, port 3 to 7 are the ones with internal PHY.
For mv88e6xxx_phy_is_internal, I see that it is merely comparing the port index
to the number of internal phys, so in this case it would advertise (wrongly)
that ports 0 to 4 have internal phys. I also see that your suggestion (setting
num_interal_phys to max internal phy index + 1) is already in use for this
family (6393X has 8 internal phys but defines num_internal_phys to 9), so if
it's acceptable I will do as you suggest and set it to 8.
Thanks,
Alexis
