Nit: extra tab before BIT(8) and BIT(21).

Nit: extra tab before 0x1090 and 0x0008.

Nit: I think the call to devm_stmmac_probe_config_dt() will get the PHY
mode from firmware and store it in plat_dat->phy_interface so this is
probably redundant.

Nit: Could this use devm_stmmac_pltfr_probe() and drop
tc9564_dwmac_remove()?
tc9564_mac_disable() could be registered as the priv->plat->exit
callback.
