Agreed on two points:
1) phy_set_max_speed() is documented as a function that the MAC will
call.
2) calling phy_set_max_speed() in .config_init() is way too late for
phylink. .config_init() is called from phy_init_hw(), which happens
after the PHY has been attached. However, phylink needs to know what
the PHY supports _before_ that, especially for any PHY that is on a
SFP, so it can determine what interface to use for the PHY.
So, as Andrew says, the current aqcs109_config_init(), and it seems
aqr111_config_init() are both broken.
The PHY driver needs to indicate to phylib what is supported by the
PHY no later than the .get_features() method.
Thanks.
