Forward error correction (FEC) is available on the PHYs of the MRMAC port. FEC can be enabled or disabled on a per-port basis.
The various FEC operating modes are selected through the ctl_fec_mode field of the FEC_CONFIGURATION_REG configuration
register. A change in the FEC_CONFIGURATION_REG of the port requires a reset being driven to
that port after configuration is complete.
