Ah!

You have the phy device tree parameters in the wrong place. These are
phy paramters, so should really be in the phy node. But
socfpga_cyclone5_socdk.dts has them in the MAC node.

There is nothing in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/micrel.txt
which says you are allowed to place them in the MAC node. Obviously
the code did allow this, which is what has now broken.
