In NXP LS1028A there is a MAC-to-MAC internal link between enetc_port2 and mscc_felix_port4. This link operates at 2.5Gbps and is described as such for the mscc_felix_port4 node.
The reason for the discrepancy is a limitation in the PHY library support for fixed-link nodes. Due to the fact that the PHY library registers a software PHY which emulates the clause 22 register map, the drivers/net/phy/fixed_phy.c driver only supports speeds up to 1Gbps.
The mscc_felix_port4 node is probed by DSA, which does not use the PHY library directly, but phylink, and phylink has a different representation for fixed-link nodes, one that does not have the limitation of not being able to represent speeds > 1Gbps.
Since the enetc driver was converted to phylink too as of commit 71b77a7a27a3 ("enetc: Migrate to PHYLINK and PCS_LYNX"), the limitation has been practically lifted there too, and we can describe the real link speed in the device tree now.
