For patch 1, I did leave out the write for MR_ADV_ABILITY_REG, I had
assumed you'd get the idea on that and merge the if() condition you
already had with my suggestion above (which isn't literal code!)

In patch 3, you simply need to add:

if (interface == USXGMII)
cpsw_sl_ctl_set(CPSW_SL_CTL_XGIG | CPSW_SL_CTL_XGMII_EN);
else
cpsw_sl_ctl_clr(CPSW_SL_CTL_XGIG | CPSW_SL_CTL_XGMII_EN);

Thanks.
