32 bits, this has an unit. Why is this configurable through Device Tree
and if this is describing the HW, as it should, why is not that inferred
from the compatible string?

Interesting, why do you need to declare this as opposed to also
determining this entirely from the compatible string of the Ethernet MAC?

There is no phy-handle property, yet there clearly seems to be one
attached, and I think Andrew now also responded to that in the driver
patch, this needs fixing.
