I have nothing specific for your chip, but a suggestion for an
alternative approach.

In case you're not aware, code was added to U-boot a few months ago in:

commit 83853178bd36bca6f0f8f1331476620c84a587fc

for responding to ICMP requests.  If you put your PHY in loopback, you
can use the 'ping' command to generate traffic without building a
throwaway stand-alone application.  Of course you'll need to format your
code as a U-boot driver, but it's not that hard, people are here to help
and eventually you'll need to do it anyway.

Just a thought...
