You should store this away in mac_link_up. Pause can be negotiated. It
could be the link partner does not want pause, does not support pause.
When phylink calls .mac_link_up this has all been determined and you
then know how to setup the hardware. Here is too early.

Agreed. Even though fbnic currently does not support autoneg, moving this to .mac_link_up is the right approach. Thanks for the feedback.
