If you can use it, that's great, the reason why I did not recommend
using it before was because it takes a phydev reference and your code
clearly could have run before connecting to the PHY device.

Alternatively, we could introduce a helper function that just checks a
phy_interface_t type, something like:

static inline bool phy_interface_is_rgmii(phy_interface_t mode)
{
	...
}

and introduce:

static inline bool phydev_interface_is_rgmii(struct phy_device *phydev)
{
	return phy_interface_is_rgmii(phydev->interface);
}

which would use this helper function internally. Or just drop the second
helper, and always pass phydev->interface where needed.
