I don't think we want this to depend solely on OF_MDIO.

The #else case should probably be coded to look at platform data, if
it exists. I don't have any boards that still used platform data to test this
out so I did not feel comfortable adding code I could not test.

The platform data should contain the RGMII tx/rx delay and FIFO control.
