Ok, I'll switch to rgmii-id.

These are the default values used in over a dozen boards and a also
given in the example in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/rockchip-dwmac.yaml.
These are also the default values the driver uses when tx_delay and
rx_delay are not given in the device tree.

I can prepare a patch to fix the example.

Do you have a pointer why setting the delays in the phy is preferred
over setting them in the network driver? In the end this requires us
to have the correct phy driver whereas setting them in the network
driver would just work for any phy driver?
