Looking closer at this, what's RMII delay ? There's no delays in RMII, and
it's a single clock not a RX and TX clock like RGMII, there's no RMII TXC/RXC.
I think it's the same as on allwinner, the delay handling has been mixed-up between
RMII and RGMII in the glue, you should be able to simplify this even more by
ditching the RMII case.
