OK, no problem. I had some doubts when I modified these files.
So, I guess it's OK for you to have direct PHY operations (hw->phy.ops.
[read|write]_reg) in ixgbe_rxtx.c ?

I just wanted to respect the initial rule: 1 model = 1 function. But I
can merge them in one function as it's the same mechanism in order to
setup the loopback.
I will update a new patchset today.
