Why all these combinations? You don't know which switch port is which?

This looks suspicious. "rx-internal-delay-ps" and "tx-internal-delay-ps"
are only relevant for the RGMII modes, but you specify phy-mode = "mii".
Does the board schematic confirm that MII is the physical connection
being used from the switch to the FEC?
If you are truly using MII, then you should remove the RGMII delay
properties, and since you are using a 6.1 kernel - hence after kernel
commit 5d645df99ac6 ("net: dsa: sja1105: determine PHY/MAC role from PHY
interface type") - you should be using phy-mode = "rev-mii" to put this
port in MII PHY ("RevMII") mode - to interoperate with the FEC in MII
MAC mode.

Still, please refrain from involving out-of-tree modules when asking for
help upstream. Thanks.

ifconfig reports statistics counters from the /proc/net/dev interface,
which the sja1105 does not report very well (they don't come from hardware).
It's best to use "ethtool -S eth0 | grep -v ': 0'" for FEC and SJA1105
CPU port (named "p04_*") counters, and "ethtool -S ethphy0 | grep -v ': 0'"
to get hardware counters from the switch user ports.
You can also use the RX counters to determine which switch port is which
(but the phy-handle of each port to each PHY needs to be correct).

I'm not convinced packets are routed through ethphy0 or ethphy1, since
all interfaces have IPv4 link-local addresses only. You can use
"ip route get 169.254.178.1" to confirm what interface gets chosen.
This is not indicative of a device-level problem, just a setup one.
Please set up some IPv4 static addresses which are not link-local on the
DSA user ports and try to ping a link partner which has an IP address in
the same subnet.
