This is set to '4' in patch 12/12.

I made some more tests and it seems the only stable configuration is 
"rgmii" with "starfive,gtxclk-dlychain" set to 4:

phy-mode | dlychain | status
---------+----------+--------------------------------------------
rgmii    |        4 | OK (no issues observed)
rgmii-id |        4 | BROKEN (errors reported [1])
rgmii    |        0 | UNRELIABLE (no errors, but frequent stalls)
rgmii-id |        0 | BROKEN (errors reported)

[1] Reported errors in case of BROKEN status:
$ grep '' /sys/class/net/eth0/statistics/* | grep -v ':0$'

/sys/class/net/eth0/statistics/rx_crc_errors:6
/sys/class/net/eth0/statistics/rx_errors:6
/sys/class/net/eth0/statistics/tx_bytes:10836
/sys/class/net/eth0/statistics/tx_packets:46
