i already tried this (without moving the autoneg/pause to sfp_parse_support):

static void sfp_quirk_disable_autoneg(const struct sfp_eeprom_id *id,
				unsigned long *modes,
				unsigned long *interfaces)
{
	linkmode_clear_bit(ETHTOOL_LINK_MODE_Autoneg_BIT, modes);
}

quirk was executed, but no change (no link on 2g5 sfp).

i guess you mean moving code handling the dt-property for inband-mode in phylink_parse_mode (phylink.c) to the sfp-function (drivers/net/phy/sfp-bus.c)

as a first test i tried to disable autoneg for the inband-setting

but it seems this is not enough (or i miss something) and i get error when i try to set mac up
