net: dsa: sja1105: always keep RGMII ports in the MAC role

Browse Source 
In SJA1105, the xMII Mode Parameters Table field called PHY_MAC denotes
the 'role' of the port, be it a PHY or a MAC. This makes a difference in
the MII and RMII protocols, but RGMII is symmetric, so either PHY or MAC
settings result in the same hardware behavior.

The SJA1110 is different, and the RGMII ports only work when configured
in MAC mode, so keep the port roles in MAC mode unconditionally.

Why we had an RGMII port in the PHY role in the first place was because
we wanted to have a way in the driver to denote whether RGMII delays
should be applied based on the phy-mode property or not. This is already
done in sja1105_parse_rgmii_delays() based on an intermediary
struct sja1105_dt_port (which contains the port role). So it is a
logical fallacy to use the hardware configuration as a scratchpad for
driver data, it isn't necessary.

We can also remove the gating condition for applying RGMII delays only
for ports in the PHY role. The .setup_rgmii_delay() method looks at
the priv->rgmii_rx_delay[port] and priv->rgmii_tx_delay[port] properties
which are already populated properly (in the case of a port in the MAC
role they are false). Removing this condition generates a few more SPI
writes for these ports (clearing the RGMII delays) which are perhaps
useless for SJA1105P/Q/R/S, where we know that the delays are disabled
by default. But for SJA1110, the firmware on the embedded microcontroller
might have done something funny, so it's always a good idea to clear the
RGMII delays if that's what Linux expects.
