Do you mean by internal port that the port does not have MII pinout? Port 6
of the MT7530 switch do. It is possible to have an external PHY wired to
it. So it would make sense to design mt7530_setup_port6() in the sense that
dynamic reconfiguration is possible.

I've tested to see that the core operations for TRGMII does not interfere
so no need to undo them when the interface changes from TRGMII to RGMII.

I'll do below on this patch:

	if (interface == PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_RGMII) {
		mt7530_rmw(priv, MT7530_P6ECR, P6_INTF_MODE_MASK,
			   P6_INTF_MODE(0));
		return;
	}
