Clang can't know that phy_intf_sel will only ever be one of
PHY_INTF_SEL_RMII or PHY_INTF_SEL_RGMII here (its already been
validated as such by the only caller of this function.)
I guess the way around this warning is to move:
val |= FIELD_PREP(MACPHYC_PHY_INFT_MASK, phy_intf_sel);
up and make it a simple assignment, and make the others |=.
That's the code I originally had before I attempted to minimise the
noise in the patches. :(

FTTP is here! 80Mbps down 10Mbps up. Decent connectivity at last!
