These are just some constatns to be able to select between the
integrated PHYs, RGMII, SerDes interfaces. Because these interfaces
needs to be muxed according to the HW.

This is something similar with the Ocelot Serdes where there are only
2 Serdes types.

Cu - copper PHY
RG - RGMII

I will create a new version where I will improve the log message.
