In the general case, this is probably only safe if the board has
configured the PEX to have the PHY clock. Marvell has guidelines for
unused PEX's that would result in the PHY clock being permanently
inactive.

Register 10030 tells what the strap for the PHY clock is. I expect in
many cases the PEX driver should not be loaded if the PHY clock is not
internally derived. Maybe checking this register will tell your QNAPs
apart?
