No. I would like to see the status of the copper side and the status
of the SGMII side, at the point at803x_aneg_done() is called.

If the copper side is up, but the SGMII side is down, returning 0 is
correct.

It could be, the copper side is up, but the SGMII side is down, at the
point at803x_aneg_done() is called. So it is correctly returning
0. Sometime later the SGMII side goes up, but there is not a second
interrupt. Hence the phy core does not know that the full, 2 stage MAC
to PHY to peer PHY link is now up.
