Good catch.

I have access to datasheet. It is public here:
https://www.microchip.com/en-us/product/lan8842#Documentation

The problem is that now the register are described in a different
document and this one is not yet public. I have asked and they are
working to publish also this one but I can't say if it takes a day or a
month.

And the reason why I say it 'appears' is because I have seen most of the
registers are for debug and some timers.
