The phy-mode is alreay set to the "rgmii-id" and a rx delay is already
set (a default tx delay is set by the phy driver). In the scenario 
the extra bit is used to fix 2ns difference between the sampling clock
and data. It is more like an extra setting and the kernel can not handle
it by only setting the phy-mode.

This is draft dts patch for the sg2044 gmac.
