Why do you even need all of those changes? Please thoroughly justify
because ... (see below)

... these are just a combination of the
xpcs_sgmii_features[]/xpcs_sgmii_interfaces[] and
xpcs_2500basex_features[]/xpcs_2500basex_interfaces[] data which are
already supported by the generic DW XPCS code. All of these features
and interfaces are checked in the xpcs_create() method and then get to
be combined in the framework of the xpcs_validate() and
xpcs_get_interfaces() functions. And ...

... this is just a copy of the code which is already available in xpcs_do_config():

< compat = xpcs_find_compat(xpcs->id, interface);
< if (!compat)
< return -ENODEV;
<
< switch (compat->an_mode) {
< ...
< case DW_AN_C37_SGMII:
< ret = xpcs_config_aneg_c37_sgmii(xpcs, neg_mode);
< if (ret)
< return ret;
< break;
< ...
< case DW_2500BASEX:
< ret = xpcs_config_2500basex(xpcs);
< if (ret)
< return ret;
< break;

So based on the passed interface xpcs_find_compat() will find a proper
compat descriptor, which an_mode field will be then utilized to call
the respective config method. Thus, unless I miss something, basically
you won't need any of the changes below and the most of the changes
above reducing the patch to just a few lines.
