Hmmm.  On the RB450G, arge1 is connected to port 5 on the AR8316
switch, and port 5 on the AR8316 is configured by the boot loader to
bypass the switch complex and connect directly to an internal PHY.
The MDIO bus on the AR8316 is wired to arge0.  arge0 is connected to
the cpu port on the AR8316, with no real PHY.  That hack diff I sent
is making less and less overall sense (although it does let me limp
along for the moment).

What I really want is for arge0 to initialize to whatever fixed rate
is hinted (or defaulted when no hint is given), and I want arge1 to
see its PHY on the MDIO bus attached to arge0.  Perhaps I should have
ARGE_MDIO defined whereas I currently do not?
