I have tried to fix the above issue. It looks like the interrupt
handler doesn't work at all. Below is the log with all debug prints
enabled. I just see one PHY interrupt. Don't know if that is okay or
not.

and after this the NFS timeouts appear. I tried to figure out how the
PHY works [1] and played a bit around with fiddling with a few bits in
the registers. But now success at all.

I agree with Sebastian, with the revert the driver works at least.

Thanks,
Daniel
