may be it make sense to add a generic delay property for MACs and PHYs?

In the driver i didn't found sanity check for valid values.

I'm curios, how this numbers ware taken?
Old configurations was:
TX delay:
(txd*-skew-ps = 0) == -420ns
(txc-skew-ps = 900) == 0ns
resulting delays 0.420ns

RX delay:
(rxd*-skew-ps = 0) == -420ns
(rxc-skew-ps = 900) == 0ns
internal delay 1.2 + 420ns will be 1.62ns

I was not able to find actual delay values provided by the MAC. But from your patches it looks like 2ns.

So, end result will be:
TXID = 2.4ns
RXID = 3.62ns

Both values seems to be a bit out of spec. New values are:
TXID = PHY 0ns + MAC 2.0ns
RXID =
(rxd*-skew-ps = no change) == 0ns
(rxc-skew-ps = 1500) == +600ns
internal delay 1.2 + 600ns = 1.8ns

>From the PHY point of view, it is RGMII_RXID mode. Are you sure, RGMII_ID is not working for you?
Till now the numbers was not looking as a fine tuning.
I assume, it is better to use proper phy-mode instead of skew-ps values. I feel like no one had time
to understand real configured values in this PHY.
