It's actually being set a bit below. However that raises the
question of why.

On the variant that don't have this newly-introduced SFP support but do
have sgmii support (!is_sfp_support_en && is_sgmii_en), can this chip
actually support 2500BaseX ?

If so, is there a point in getting a different default interface
returned from lan743x_phy_interface_select() depending on wether or not
there's SFP support ?
