I prefer bit position over mask.

But please fully document this in the device tree. This is something a
board developer is going to get wrong, because they assume MAC blocks
are identical, and normally need identical configuration.

I assume this is also a hardware 'bug', and the next generation of the
silicon will have this fixed? So this will go away?
