           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

You have Broadcom BCM5754 Gigabit PHY and it should be supported
by brgphy(4). The required change is not present in 6.2R so you
have to update to latest stable or CURRENT.
According to miidevs database the model name, BCM5754, seems to
misleading. I guess it should be BCM5421. Could you verify that?

In CURRENT gem(4) also recevied checksum offload capability and you
would get better performance than ever before.
