This question already raised multiple times in sun8i-emac development, I do not have any information on how to decode thoses values. (and so the comment below in documentation)
I will try to contact Allwinner for more details.

As said by MoeIcenowy, an internal PHY is present. At early stage of development, wens tried to create a PHY driver for it, but finaly it was too much over complicated and with few interest to split in two.

Thanks, will fix
