This is more than likely an issue with the RTL8211F not being identified
because it needs to be reset before its phy-id can be read. See [4] for
an old topic on similar issue with RTL8211F on other boards.

Mainline U-Boot will reset the Ethernet PHY during boot and this will
help Linux identify it correctly. See [5] for mainline U-Boot for this
board. Will submit U-Boot patches once the DT has reached a tag in the
devicetree-rebasing repo.

Another possible solution (untested) would be to change the Ethernet PHY
compatible to "ethernet-phy-id001c.c916". That may help bootstrap Linux
into being able to reset and identify the PHY.
