OK, I finally managed to take care of this. I commited a fix to current
and will request a pullup.
Your analysis in the PR is correct, but I found that the place of
the trap isn't where ddb/tr say. Using single-step, I found it gets
the trap at write time, which correspond to GO_WINDOW(4) in the code.
mii_bitbang_readreg() is never called.
In the non-mii case there is a GO_WINDOW(4) too, and I suspect this was
what caused the trap too.
