I dare to dispute here ;) Above code snippet from phy_probe() will
(try to) set also SUPPORTED_Asym_Pause, because phydrv->features
doesn't include any of the two pause flags.
The statement in bcm63xx_config_init you refer to seems to be a
no-op to me therefore.

I'd say the correct way is to change the PHY config like this:
.features	= PHY_BASIC_FEATURES | SUPPORTED_Pause;
It's exactly the use case the code snippet above covers.

I think the bcm63xx driver would need to be changed.
