Can you elaborate some more on the reasons for this?  

I'd like to understand if it's something specific to the hardware on that 
board, or if other i.MX6 boards using the ar8035 are doing it wrong as well.

The datasheet strongly suggests this is the correct thing to do as MDIO 
should electrically be open drain. However that suggests many more instances 
of this incorrect configuration exist which also need changed, and not just 
for ar8035.

While I'm reluctant to attribute something like this to the fec/interrupt 
problems some people are seeing, I'd also like to be able to rule it out.
