Thanks for investigating! Seems that somehow PHY broadcast worked on this
board with older kernels (and current barebox), but no longer does with
newer kernels.

A bisection could shed some light onto what broke this.

As the KSZ8081 driver disables broadcast in the phy config init, this change
looks appropriate regardless. The fixes tag doesn't refer to an upstream
commit though. This should probably read:
Fixes: af690fa37e39 ("ARM: dts: at91: at91-sama5d27_som1: add sama5d27 SoM1 support")

With this addressed:

You could send a proper patch and stick your S-o-b under it.

Cheers,
Ahmad
