uapi .... I would expect everything below that is considered exported.

Take a look at the sources for mii-tool.c:

    if (bmcr & BMCR_ANENABLE) {
        if (bmsr & BMSR_ANEGCOMPLETE) {
            if (advert & lkpar) {
                strcat(buf, (lkpar & LPA_LPACK) ?
                       "negotiated" : "no autonegotiation,");
                strcat(buf, media_list(advert & lkpar, bmcr2 & lpa2>>2, 1));
                strcat(buf, ", ");
            } else {
                strcat(buf, "autonegotiation failed, ");
            }
        } else if (bmcr & BMCR_ANRESTART) {
            strcat(buf, "autonegotiation restarted, ");
        }
    } else {
        sprintf(buf+strlen(buf), "%s Mbit, %s duplex, ",
                ((bmcr2 & (ADVERTISE_1000HALF | ADVERTISE_1000FULL)) & lpa2 >> 2)
                ? "1000"
                : (bmcr & BMCR_SPEED100) ? "100" : "10",
                (bmcr & BMCR_FULLDPLX) ? "full" : "half");
    }
    strcat(buf, (bmsr & BMSR_LSTATUS) ? "link ok" : "no link");

So they are actually used as well. Try compiling this with your
changes made.
