I'd say works by accident. If I use $fdtcontroladdr it works, but if I load the
dtb into $fdt_addr_r the kernel crashes at boot.

I see bcmgenet_eth_probe() being called on U-Boot startup.
After that I can read registers from the phy, e.g.:
mdio read genet@7d580000 1
Reading from bus mdio@e14
PHY at address 1:
1 - 0x7969

You are right, it get's not called. I think last function called is
bcmgenet_gmac_eth_stop() but that's not an analytic claim (speak, I only saw
this sometimes when booting the kernel).
Will keep digging tomorrow.
