I believe a fix was submitted:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-phy/patch/5b9a5f765f075263498f9a7b62b0b1030d87b6ba.1736476210.git.xiaopei01@xxxxxxxxxx/

It appears to be waiting for approval and/or merge. If someone wants
to test it. I added Pei,the author of the fix, to the CC in this
thread.
