 I think you are absolutly right.  If you look at axe_mii_readreg()
 and axe_mii_writereg() you can see that the value val is
 totally mishandled.  It is not byte swapped, and in the case
 of writing the address of a 32 bit variable is used where you
 need the address to two bytes.
 
 You could try fixing that.
