We may have a problem here, with the layout of the Spare Control 3
register not being as universal as we think.

Your finding may have been the same as Kevin Lo's from commit
b0ed0bbfb304 ("net: phy: broadcom: add support for BCM54811 PHY"),
therefore your change is making BCM54XX_SHD_SCR3_TRDDAPD ==
BCM54810_SHD_SCR3_TRDDAPD, so currently this if condition is redundant
and probably something else is wrong too:

	if (phydev->dev_flags & PHY_BRCM_DIS_TXCRXC_NOENRGY) {
		if (BRCM_PHY_MODEL(phydev) == PHY_ID_BCM54810 ||
		    BRCM_PHY_MODEL(phydev) == PHY_ID_BCM54811)
			val |= BCM54810_SHD_SCR3_TRDDAPD;
		else
			val |= BCM54XX_SHD_SCR3_TRDDAPD;
	}

I'm not sure what "TRDD" stands for, but my copy of the BCM5464R
datasheet shows both bits 2 as well as 8 as being reserved. I have
"CLK125 Output" in bit 0, "DLL Auto Power-Down" in bit 1, "SD/Energy
Detect Change" in bit 5, "TXC Disable" in bit 6, and that's about it.

But I think it doesn't matter what BCM5464R has, since this feature is
gated by PHY_BRCM_DIS_TXCRXC_NOENRGY.
