Is that so? With SerDes protocol 0x3333, won't the PCS that's connected
to fm1-mac9 use SGMII/1000BASE-X (thus not 10GBASE-R)?

And as for QSGMII, what's the relevance of that? You can't have one
device tree good for all SerDes protocols and RCW pinmuxing options.
Either there are 4 MACs aggregated onto a single lane, or there is one
MAC per lane, but I've never encountered any use case for alternating
between these 2 configurations at runtime, or with same device tree for
that matter, have you? QSGMII seems to have been the original motivation
for listing all possible PCSes of a MAC in pcs-handle-names, but again, why?
