Hi Geert

Checking for skews which might contradict the PHY-mode is new. I think
this is the first PHY driver to do it. So i'm not too surprised it has
triggered a warning, or there is contradictory documentation.

Your use cases is reasonable. Have the normal transmit delay, and a
bit shorted receive delay. So we should allow it. It just makes the
validation code more complex :-(
