Loopback should not require that. The whole point of loopback in the
PHY is you can do it without needing a cable.

So you get an ETIMEDOUT, and then skip the code which actually sets
the LOOPBACK bit?
Please look at this again, and make it work without a cable.
Maybe you are addressing the wrong issue? Is the PHY actually
performing loopback, but reporting the link is down? Maybe you need to
fake a link up? Maybe you need the self test to not care about the
link state, all it really needs is that packets get looped?
