Can you please do:
phy_write_paged(phydev, MSCC_PHY_PAGE_EXTENDED_GPIO,
MSCC_PHY_GPIO_CONTROL_2, 0x0600);

And can you please provide some definitions for what 0x0600 is?
My reference manual says that:

Bit 13:
COMA_MODE output enable (active low)
Bit 12:
COMA_MODE output data
Bit 11:
COMA_MODE input data
Bit 10:
Reserved
Bit 9:
Tri-state enable for LEDs

0x600 is BIT(10) | BIT(9). But BIT(10) is reserved. Sure this is correct?
