Why do you think it would be undefined?

static void phylink_mac_pcs_get_state(struct phylink *pl,
struct phylink_link_state *state)
{
...
if (state->an_enabled) {
...
state->pause = MLO_PAUSE_NONE;
} else {
,,,
state->pause = pl->link_config.pause;
}
...
if (pl->pcs)
pl->pcs->ops->pcs_get_state(pl->pcs, state);

So, phylink will call your pcs_get_state() function having initialised
it to something sensible.
