I think there's be plenty of value in some common XGMII code; 
particularly for formulating and gathering stats. There are well laid 
down standards for MMD register sets and the PHYs I've met stick to them 
pretty well. As for common XGMII reset or init. code, I'd say there 
would be less value; it can be very PHY specific.
