There is a bit more, which is did not copy:

    Also, used for setting speed of MAC interface during MAC side
    loop-back. Requires that customer set both these bits and force
    speed using register 0 to the same speed.  MAC Interface Speed
    during Link down.

So i don't think they matter during normal operation.
