You should be using of_phy_connect or similar so that the
necessary PHY<>OF data is properly initialised

With this do you not risk confusing the hardware by swapping the
format of the descriptors?

Why not use xxx_to_cpu() and cpu_to_xxx() functions when reading or
writing the descriptors? It would also remove a lot of the #ifdef in
this code.
