Wouldn't it be more clear instead of indirect lane offset shift with
lynx_28g_e25g_pcvt, to instead fix the E25G_CFG definition?:

-#define E25G_CFG(id) (28 - (id) * 4) /* Offset into PCCD */
+#define E25G_CFG(id) ((id) * 4)      /* Offset into PCCD */

This is equivalent when inserting (7 - lane) into E25G_CFG id:

(28 - (id) * 4) = (28 - (7 - lane) * 4) = (28 - 7*4 + lane*4)
