If SGMII is also an option, then what you're doing in
lan937x_parse_dt_rgmii_delay() looks wrong:

		/* skip for internal ports */
		if (lan937x_is_internal_phy_port(dev, p))
			continue;

		if (of_property_read_u32(port, "rx-internal-delay-ps", &val))
			val = 0;

		err = lan937x_set_rgmii_delay(dev, p, val, false);
		if (err)
			break;

Right now you assume that "isn't internal PHY" is the same as "is RGMII",
but this is not actually the future-proof way of doing things. Also
please consider that the driver you write now may end up booting on a DT
blob from the future. Do you do something sane when a port is configured
for a phy-mode you don't recognize? For one thing, you try to configure
RGMII delays on it, as far as I can see.

No supported_interfaces for the 100base-TX internal PHY port? Does it
pass validation?
