In the majority, if not all cases, mac_interface and phy_interface
are the same with the exception of some drivers that I have suggested
only use phy_interface and set mac_interface to PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_NA.
The only two that currently set mac_interface to PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_NA
are dwmac-loongson and dwmac-lpc18xx, neither of which use RGMII nor
SGMII.
In order to phase out the use of mac_interface, we need to have a path
for existing drivers so they can update to only using phy_interface
without causing regressions.
Therefore, in order to keep the "pcs" code working, we need to choose
the STMMAC integrated PCS mode based on phy_interface if mac_interface
is PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_NA.
This will allow more drivers to set mac_interface to
PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_NA without risking regressions.
