The rgmii configuration is may be wrong.
phy-mode = "rgmii" looks not realistic. The "rgmii" is only possible if rgmii clock line on this
board is about 20cm longer compared to rgmii data lines. I doubt it is the case :)
So, it looks like the delay was added as separate property for the MAC. Without reading manual for
this chip I can't interprete this values looks somehow strange:
tx_delay = <0x4f>;
rx_delay = <0x0f>;
Normally delays are equal for both directions.
Best practice is: MAC do not adds delays, PHY will do it (PHY driver should be enabled)
